The Eagles have proved time and time again this season that they have the ability to come back from large deficits and Tuesday’s game against the Pointers was no different. The Pointers led 56-49 with just 59 seconds left, but Tal Diekvoss and Jake Heuer hit back-to-back threes to make it 56-55 with 8.1 left. After Stephen Pelkofer drained two free throws for UWSP, Rusch flew down the left sideline and hit an off-balance and highly contested three-point shot. However UWSP scored the first five points of overtime and never looked back. Edgewood College struggled in the second half and came up empty handed against Benedictine. The Eagles led by three at the half after shooting 47.8 percent, but Benedictine then used a 17-2 run to gain control and pull away for the win. Diekvoss finished with 16 points.
About the Falcons Concordia University Wisconsin has struggled on defense so far this season and will meet Edgewood College with a 1-3 record. The Falcons have given up at least 79 points in each of their three losses, but they did manage to score 93 against Martin Luther College in their lone win of the year. Three Falcons are averaging double figures as Keith Kahlfeldt leads the team with a mark of 13.5 points per game.

A MESSAGE FROM HEAD COACH
JUSTIN MEYER
The Booster Club is an integral part of our Edgewood College Basketball Family. Support from fans like you has played a significant role in the success of our program, which has earned 10 conference championships and three NCAA Division III National Tournament appearances. During my time here at Edgewood, the Eagles have won four conference titles, finished runner-up four times, and played in seven conference championship games. We have also won the second most games in the NACC over the last eight years. In 2014 we reached the conference championship game for the third time in the last four years. Now beginning my 12th full season with the Eagles Basketball Family, I am very excited about the upcoming season. I feel very fortunate and honored to be part of a program with such a storied history, as well as a loyal and dedicated fan base, and look forward to leading the Eagles again this season. Having a large number of letter winners and contributors back this year, I truly feel we are ready to take the next step and not only return to the NACC Championship Game but win it this season as well. With a dedicated core of returning players and a very good group of newcomers we are focused on having a great season and hopefully returning to the NCAA Tournament. this off season has seen lots of hard work, sweat, and dedication from our team in hopes of it paying off in February. Our program continues to attract high-quality student-athletes who strive to do their best both on the court and in the classroom. Last season we had the second highest GPA of any male sport on campus with a 3.18 team GPA and we had the most community service hours of any sport on campus with over 600 team hours. Our players know they represent everyone who has ever worn an Eagle uniform or attended our fine institution. Now, as we anxiously await the beginning of a new season, we invite your support to share in our quest to bring home another championship to Edgewood College. By becoming an Eagle Booster you can be confident you are investing in a first class program by providing our student-athletes with apparel, meals and special travel opportunities. This year we will be traveling to San Juan, Puerto Rico to play two nationally ranked opponents. As you know trips like these offer our student-athletes a once in a life time experience! They also come with a steep price tag. This season all Booster Club donations will go towards funding the Puerto Rico trip with the goal of having our student-athletes pay as little as possible for this wonderful experience.

GREAT COMPETITION.
Edgewood College men’s basketball team continues to play one of the toughest non-conference schedules in the country. Last season the Eagles played the 8th toughest non-conference schedule out of over 400 NCAA Division III schools. Three of their five nonconference games were against teams ranked in the Top 10 in the country. This seasons non-conference highlights include games against three nationally ranked teams and a trip to San Juan, Puerto Rico to take on two of the best programs in the country.

A MESSAGE FROM HEAD COACH
JUSTIN MEYER
The Booster Club is an integral part of our Edgewood College Basketball Family. Support from fans like you has played a significant role in the success of our program, which has earned 10 conference championships and three NCAA Division III National Tournament appearances. During my time here at Edgewood, the Eagles have won four conference titles, finished runner-up four times, and played in seven conference championship games. We have also won the second most games in the NACC over the last eight years. In 2014 we reached the conference championship game for the third time in the last four years. Now beginning my 12th full season with the Eagles Basketball Family, I am very excited about the upcoming season. I feel very fortunate and honored to be part of a program with such a storied history, as well as a loyal and dedicated fan base, and look forward to leading the Eagles again this season. Having a large number of letter winners and contributors back this year, I truly feel we are ready to take the next step and not only return to the NACC Championship Game but win it this season as well. With a dedicated core of returning players and a very good group of newcomers we are focused on having a great season and hopefully returning to the NCAA Tournament. this off season has seen lots of hard work, sweat, and dedication from our team in hopes of it paying off in February. Our program continues to attract high-quality student-athletes who strive to do their best both on the court and in the classroom. Last season we had the second highest GPA of any male sport on campus with a 3.18 team GPA and we had the most community service hours of any sport on campus with over 600 team hours. Our players know they represent everyone who has ever worn an Eagle uniform or attended our fine institution. Now, as we anxiously await the beginning of a new season, we invite your support to share in our quest to bring home another championship to Edgewood College. By becoming an Eagle Booster you can be confident you are investing in a first class program by providing our student-athletes with apparel, meals and special travel opportunities. This year we will be traveling to San Juan, Puerto Rico to play two nationally ranked opponents. As you know trips like these offer our student-athletes a once in a life time experience! They also come with a steep price tag. This season all Booster Club donations will go towards funding the Puerto Rico trip with the goal of having our student-athletes pay as little as possible for this wonderful experience.
