2014-15 Schedule P.3 Among the new faces in the Rider University women’s basketball program this season is Finishing Thoughts P.3 assistant coach John Hampton. (See inside Birthday Calendar P.4 to meet our three freshmen) Hampton comes to Rider from Clarkson University in Potsdam, NY. The Philadelphia native spent four seasons as head coach, after two seasons as a graduate assistant. Hampton graduated from Division II Mansfield University in 2008 with a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, and he earned his master’s degree in Organizational Leadership from SUNY-Potsdam in 2010. While at Mansfield, Hampton walked on to the men’s basketball team and earned an athletic scholarship. In 2006, he was the Most Improved Player, and he was the team Most Valuable Player in 2007 and 2008, earning PSAC All-Conference honors as a senior. Hampton replaces John Miller who after 7 years moved on to a similar position at Richmond University. Welcome to Rider Coach Hampton!
Participation in the Preseason Women’s National Invitational Tournament and games against national powers Old Dominion, Penn State and Delaware highlight the 2014-15 Rider University women’s basketball non-conference schedule and the Broncs open the MAAC schedule at home against Iona December 5. “We have again put together a terrific non-conference schedule that will challenge us on every level,” said head coach Lynn Milligan who will begin her eighth season at Rider. “Our goal is always to challenge ourselves in preparation for our conference schedule. We have a chance to play opponents from multiple conferences, all of which will bring a different dynamic on game day.”The MAAC schedule opens December 5 against Iona (26-6, 18-2 MAAC) and the Broncs travel to defending MAAC champion Marist (27-7, 18-2 MAAC) on December 7. "You have to play all 20 MAAC games at some point," said Milligan. Rider opens the season with a minimum of three games in the 2014 Preseason WNIT, and the Broncs begin tournament play at Seton Hall on November 14. Rider lost 86-75 to the Pirates last season in a game that had six ties and four lead changes. Tied at 68, the Pirates used a 9-0 run in the final five minutes of play to escape with the victory. Seton Hall won 20 games last year, and the Pirates advanced to the third round of the WNIT. The Broncs return eight letterwinners and three starters from a squad that compiled a 15-17 record, the fifth most wins in the 75-year history of the sport at Rider. The Broncs advanced to the MAAC semi-finals for the first time ever, and Rider was within three points of Marist College with 14:11 remaining in the game before losing by 11 to the eventual conference champions. “Every year and team is different, and this one will be as well,” Milligan added. “We would like to continue our late season success into this season but we will be a very different team when we step on the floor at Seton Hall in November than we were in March against Marist. The MAAC will be as strong as ever. With conference play beginning in December, we will get an early look at how the team is developing. Every team has to be ready earlier in the season for the rigors of conference play and the non-conference schedule will certainly challenge us to reach that goal.”
We are thrilled to report that Myneshia McKenzie ‘14 has officially begun her professional career. After not being placed somewhere earlier in the summer, Mac decided to switch agents and signed a contract with 610 Sports & Entertainment Management at the end of August. About one week later, September 3, Myneshia was on a plane to Portugal! She is playing with a team called Boa Viagem based in the city of Angra on the island of Terceira. From all accounts it is a beautiful little island. We are sure that Myneshia is exploring whenever she has free time! We will keep you updated on her progress. Hey Lady Broncs...We are always looking for great stories of our alums, family and friends. This section is, and has always been, one of the more popular sections of our newsletter. If you have anything you would like to contribute to the Bronc Bulletin, please contact us!
Two former Rider Lady Broncs walked down the wedding isle recently and we couldn’t be happier to share that news with our readers. We always say “once a bronc always a bronc” and it is evident in these pictures that some of their closest friends, and former teammates are very important to them. Congratulations Shannon and Danielle! On June 28, 2013 (Ok, so we are a little late reporting this) Shannon Fergusson married her long time best friend, Travis Gast in Blue Bell, PA. Attending the wedding reception were several Rider Alumnae. From left: Allison Brody, Soccer ‘10, Melissa Kowalczyk ‘10, Steph Wisniewski ‘10, Diana (Maggie) Molfetas, ‘10, Shannon Fergusson Gast ’10 , Alyssa Parsons ‘12, Lauren Gregg, Kristy Love, Volleyball ‘11, and Meghan Brett, Soccer ‘10
Wedding bells rang on June 14 2014 for Danielle Costantino ‘08 & Steve Bitterman. Attending the wedding & in her bridal party were former Lady Broncs Christine Catalonatto ‘05 and Maura Gillooly ‘08. Congrats Danielle and Steve!
We have posted updates in the past about former Rider women’s basketball alumni and their prowess for running events (5K, 10milers, half and full marathons). This past summer there were a couple of Lady Broncs that tackled the sport of triathlon. This summer, Chelsea Brown Capstraw ‘92 and Barb Levonatis McNeill ‘93 caught the triathlon bug and competed in their first events. Chelsea took part in the Jersey Girl Triathlon in Long Branch, NJ, and Barb made her debut at the Long Beach Island Annual Triathlon. From all accounts they both had a great time and will definitely be looking at next year’s schedule to find another one. Maybe we can form Team Rider Lady Broncs! Way to go ladies!
