2007-08 SAINT JOSEPH S BASKETBALL - PG. 3 HEAD COACH PHIL MARTELLI Now in his 13th year at Saint Joseph s, Phil Martelli has built a program that is consistently one of the top in the conference, a perennial post-season participant and a key player on the national scene, while earning his place among the top coaches in the school s storied history. Martelli reached a significant milestone in 2006-07, when he surpassed Hall of Famer Jack Ramsay for second place on the school s all-time list for wins. His 12-year career mark now stands at 242-140, while he ranks fourth in career winning percentage (.633) among SJU coaches. Setting the school record for wins in a season (30) in 2004, Martelli has guided SJU to 20 or more victories five times in 12 seasons. More impressively, his teams have gone 159-68 in the past seven seasons, an average of 23 wins per year. He is 123-69 in Atlantic 10 play, which is the most conference wins for any active coach in the A10. Martelli has also been at his best when it counts the most as his 17 postseason wins (6 NCAA, 11 NIT) are the most in school history, ahead of Ramsay s 12. Martelli ranks first among Hawk coaches with a.680 postseason winning percentage (17-8) and has taken SJU to the postseason in six of the last seven years, and eight times in his 12 seasons. Guiding a young squad in 2006-07, the Hawks went 18-14, marking the eighth time that he has led them to 18 or more wins. Martelli turned in a top-notch coaching performance in 2005-06, as the Hawks went from a 10-12 record in February to win the final five games of the regular season, and three straight in the conference tournament, to reach the Atlantic 10 championship for the second year in a row, falling just one point short of the title. That effort was similar to 2004-05 where he turned in perhaps a more remarkable coaching job than in 2003-04, when he was the consensus National Coach of the Year. Faced with the loss of two NBA firstround draft picks from the 03-04 squad that went 30-2, the 2004-05 Hawks struggled early on, but Martelli reworked the team s style of play to guide SJU to 21 wins in the calendar year of 2005 to finish 24-12. Saint Joseph s posted the conference s best record (14-2) and won its fifth straight regular-season title to tie the league record. The Hawks garnered the top seed in the conference tournament for the second year in a row and reached the championship game. He was named the Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year for the second straight season and the fourth time in his career. The Hawks made an exciting six-game run in the NIT, falling on a last-second shot in the championship game. It marked the second time in his career that he guided SJU to the NIT title game. Martelli s efforts and the success of the SJU program have been recognized on a consistent basis. In fact, he has earned a Coach of the Year award, whether it be a city, conference or regional honor, in six of his 12 seasons. In the summer of 2005, Martelli served as the head coach of the USA Men s U21 World Championship Team, which competed at the FIBA U21 World Championship in Argentina, and earned a fifth-place finish. In 2003-04, Martelli guided a focused and unselfish squad that became the most compelling story in college basketball with its undefeated regular season, a numberone national ranking and number-one seed in the NCAA Tournament. Led by consensus National Player of the Year Jameer Nelson, the Hawks advanced to the Elite Eight, falling two points shy of the Final Four. After 10 years as an assistant at SJU, Martelli was named the school s 14th head coach in 1995 and is just the third non-alumnus to hold the position. Martelli burst onto the scene in his first season (1995-96) and took the squad to the NIT championship game. Prior to his arrival at SJU, Martelli spent seven years as head basketball coach at Bishop Kenrick High School. At Kenrick, he led his team to six straight Catholic League playoff appearances, a school re c o rd, and still owns the school's all-time mark for wins with 108. M a rtelli began his career as the junior varsity coach at Cardinal O'Hara High in Springfield, Pa., in 1976-77. He moved on the following year to become an assistant at his alma mater, and helped guide Widener to the NCAA Division III Final Four. After that season, he accepted the head job at Kenrick. As a player, he was part of Wi d e n e r s NCAA Tournament teams in both 197475 and 1975-76, serving as team co-captain as a senior. Martelli has added a new title to his resumé, that of "author." The coach has cowritten a book, "Don't Call Me Coach: A Lesson Plan for Life" with Harold Gullan, Ph.D, which was published in the fall of 2007. Martelli and his wife Judy, a former basketball player with the legendary Immaculata College teams, have three children. Phil, Jr., a 2003 SJU graduate, is an assistant basketball coach at Niagara University, Jimmy is an assistant coach at Robert Morris University, and Elizabeth is a junior attending Saint Joseph s.

2007-08 SAINT JOSEPH S BASKETBALL - PG. 4 LAST TIME OUT: Ahmad Nivins scored 18 points and matched his career high with 13 rebounds to lead SJU to a 57-48 victory over Boston University, the Hawks' third win over the Terriers in less than a year. Saint Joseph's won despite not scoring a field goal over the final 9:03 and shooting 3-for-20 from 3-point range. The Hawks, who trailed by as many as seven in the first half, took a 49-33 lead with 9:03 left and scored just eight free throws the rest of the way, but BU could get no closer than seven points. Darrin Govens scored 19 points for the Hawks, while Tasheed Carr added nine points, five assists and six of his team's 12 steals. ON VACATION?: It only seems like it, but the Hawks have had a long break in between games, due to SJU s participation in the NIT Season Tip-Off. SJU had to leave Thanksgiving week open on its schedule in case the Hawks advanced to the semifinals in New York. The loss to Syracuse cancelled that trip and Saint Joseph s has not played since the November 17 win over Boston University. Phil Martelli even gave his team off from practice on Thanksgiving Day. But they ll get right back into action, playing four games in eight days in Philadelphia, starting with the home opener tonight. Then stretch is comprised of a highly-anticipated date with #19 Gonzaga on Thursday, a meeting with Penn State at the Palestra on Saturday and ends with a December 4 game with Holy Cross. BACK ON TRACK: Ahmad Nivins put up the numbers people are used to seeing from him with 18 points and 13 rebounds at Boston University. That followed a disappointing outing at Syracuse where he had just three points and five rebounds. GIVEAWAYS: The Hawks are on the plus side in their assist-to-turnover ratio, but it s mainly due to Tasheed Carr s team-high 26 assists. Phil Martelli hasn t been happy with the giveaways though, as SJU committed 15 against Syracuse and 16 in the win at Boston University. The squad is averaging 13.3 turnovers per game. PAT S POINTS: Pat Calathes started off the year with two 20-plus point efforts to lead the Hawks in scoring in both games. He now has eight career games in which he s scored 20 or more points. LEAGUE LEADERS: Tasheed Carr tops the Atlantic 10 in assists with 8.67 per game, in steals with 3.67, and in assist-to-turnover ratio with 3.25. Ahmad Nivins leads the league in rebounding with his average of 9.0. LONG-RANGE THREAT: Darrin Govens has established himself as the early long-range threat for the Hawks, hitting eight 3-pointers in the first two games. Govens made six against Syracuse and scored a career-high 22 points. He is now shooting 44 percent from behind the arc, having converted 38.3 percent last season. DAZZLING DEBUT: Philadelphia native Tasheed Carr had a sparkling debut with the Hawks after sitting out 2006-07 upon his transfer from Iowa State. Against FDU, he had 11 points and 12 assists, just two shy of the SJU record. He followed that up with another solid performance against Syracuse with 13 points, nine assists and six rebounds. The 6-4 guard averaged 5.8 points and 2.2 rebounds as Iowa State s sixth man in 2005-06, and was named to the Big 12 All-Bench Team. Carr attended University City H.S., but then graduated from Mt. Zion Academy in North Carolina. Carr has two years of eligibility at SJU. NOT NIVINS-TYPE NUMBERS: Ahmad Nivins only had four shots against Syracuse as the Hawks couldn t get him the ball against the SU zone. He registered just three points and five rebounds. His action was also limited to just 12 minutes in the first half after picking up two fouls. That was the lowest total for the junior since he had six points against St. Bonaventure on February 17, 2007. OFF TARGET: The Hawks free-throw shooting isn t up to par yet as they ve hit just 64.7 percent from the line. SJU was only 10-for-15 from the line against Syracuse, with the usually automatic Pat Calathes missing three in the game. They followed that hitting only 63.6 percent in Boston. Last year Saint Joseph s converted 72.3 percent, led by Calathes 84.6 percent. 700 CLUB: Pat Calathes now has 706 career points. Rob Ferguson needs 27 points for 900 and Ahmad Nivins began the year with 700 career points. SENIOR MOMENT: Against FDU, Arvydas Lidzius showed a shooting touch that s been mainly seen only in practices. The fifth-year senior came off the bench to make all four shots and record a career-high 11 points in the win over FDU, in 12 minutes of action. TEAM EFFORT: The Hawks did a good job of distributing the ball in the FDU win, recording 23 assists on 33 field goals. SJU also took care of the ball, turning it over only nine times. FRONT AND CENTER: Saint Joseph s has one of the top frontcourts in the Atlantic 10, comprised of Pat Calathes, Rob Ferguson and Ahmad Nivins, the team s top three scorers from last season. All three averaged double figures last season with Nivins scoring 16.6 points per game, Calathes averaging 13.9 and Ferguson scoring 11.3 points. Nivins and Calathes, who each received 2007 All-Conference honors, are also among the league s top 20 returning scorers. Last season, the trio accounted for 61 percent of the Hawks scoring. DIFFERENT LOOK: The Hawks are putting a more experienced starting five on the floor than last season. In 2006-07, SJU started two freshmen (Jawan Carter and Garrett Williamson). This season, the frontcourt of Pat Calathes, Ahmad Nivins and Rob Ferguson have made a total of 142 starts. Tasheed Carr starts his SJU career after two seasons at Iowa State, and Darrin Govens has made only six prior starts, but played in 27 games last year. ON TARGET: Ahmad Nivins set the school record for field goal percentage last season, converting an impressive 63.1 percent (176-279). That number also ranked as the top in the Atlantic 10. For his career, he is shooting 62.6 percent from the field. MR. VERSATILITY: Pat Calathes put together solid all-around numbers last season and ranked among the Atlantic 10 s leaders in seven different categories- scoring, rebounding, assists, blocks, defensive re b o u n d s, assist/turnover ratio, and free throw percentage. Calathes ranked second on the Hawks with career-best averages of 13.9 points and 7.1 rebounds, but led the squad in assists, with 3.6 per game. CAPTAINS OF THE SHIP: Rob Ferguson and Tasheed Carr were named cocaptains as voted by their teammates. In 2006-07, the Hawks did not elect captains and designated them only on a game-by-game basis. TO THE POINT: Phil Martelli prefers not to label his players as point guards or two-guard and says that they are just guards. The Hawks showed a combination of players who can run the point using Darrin Govens, Tasheed Carr and Garrett Williamson. Pat Calathes is also capable of running the offense and gives SJU a unique look with his height. SITTING IT OUT: Sophomore D.J. Rivera will not participate in competition this semester in order to concentrate on academics. Rivera will practice with the Hawks on a schedule determined by Coach Martelli and the academic tutors. Rivera was the Hawks sixth man last season, leading the team in steals (41) and averaging 5.9 points. His status for the rest of the season will be determined when the first semester is completed.

2007-08 SAINT JOSEPH S BASKETBALL - PG. 5 DEPTH CHARGES: The Hawks have a smaller squad than usual this year, with only 12 players for at least the first semester as D.J. Rivera sits out. There are 11 scholarship players, with C.J. Brown being the lone walk-on. Pat Calathes HONOR ROLL Atlantic 10 Preseason All-Conference Third Team IMPROVED NUMBERS: With the focus of the offense resting on their shoulders last season, Ahmad Nivins, Pat Calathes and Rob Ferguson upped their numbers, with Nivins and Calathes experiencing the more drastic change in statistics. Here s the comparison of seasons: Nivins Calathes Ferguson 05-06 06-07 05-06 06-07 05-06 06-07 Points 6.1 16.6* 4.8 13.9* 10.8 11.3* Rebounds 5.0 7.6* 2.4 7.1* 4.4 5.3* FG%.613.631*.382.456*.398.465* FT%.706.678.895*.846.844.857* * career-best statistics NEW FACES: Charoy Bentley and Idris Hilliard comprise the Hawks freshman class. Bentley, a 5-11 guard from Harding High School in Connecticut, played there under his father, Charles. An All-State selection, he averaged 25 points per game his senior season and scored over 1,600 points in his career. Hilliard, a 6-7 forward, earned All-State honors three times while at The Hun School in New Jersey. He averaged 15.0 points and 6.2 rebounds as a senior and helped his team to the Prep A state title. DEAN OF COACHES: Phil Martelli has the most Atlantic 10 wins among active coaches with 123 and owns the longest tenure at one school (12 years) of any of the league s coaches. Only Jim Baron of Rhode Island has been in the A-10 longer (15 years), but it s been at two schools, St. Bonaventure and Rhode Island. PRESEASON PICKS: The Hawks were picked to finish third in the Atlantic 10 in the preseason voting of media and coaches. Ahmad Nivins was chosen to the 2007-08 A-10 Preseason All-Conference First Team, with Pat Calathes earning a spot on the third team. Nivins was also one of 33 players named to the Naismith Trophy Preseason Watch List. LONE HOLDOVERS: Rob Ferguson and Arvydas Lidzius are each in their fifth year with the program and are the final players remaining from SJU s 2003-04 Elite Eight Team. Both were freshmen that season while Ferguson redshirted the year. Lidzius was a reserve on that team but sat out the 2005-06 season. STRENGTH OF SCHEDULE: This year the Hawks will face seven teams which reached the NCAA Tournament last season, as well as three which appeared in the NIT. In the non-conference slate they will meet three teams, Boston University (Nov. 17), Holy Cross (Dec. 4) and Siena (Dec. 28), which are picked to win their leagues in 2007-08. THREE FOR ALL: SJU owns a streak of 439 straight games with at least one 3-pointer made, a string which began at the start of the 1993-94 season. The last game in which a Hawks team did not hit a three was at Southwest Missouri State on Mar. 18, 1993. HALLMARK OF SUCCESS: Entering this season, SJU had compiled 159-68 record (70.0 winning percentage) in the past seven seasons, with postseason berths in six of them. WALKING ON: Sophomore C.J. Brown is another new face on the team as he earned a spot on the squad this year as the Hawks only walk-on. Brown was an All-State Third Team selection at Caravel Academy in Delaware and was a part of two state championship teams there. A biology major, Brown played for the Hawks junior varsity team last year.

Oldest son Phil, Jr., a 2003 SJU graduate, is an assistant coach at Niagara University. Jimmy, a 2005 graduate of Dickinson College, is in his first year as an assistant at Robert Morris University. IN GOOD COMPANY: Ahmad Nivins was one of the 30 players selected to participate in the USA Basketball Pan Am Games Trials this past summer.

2007-08 SAINT JOSEPH S BASKETBALL - PG. 6 H AWKS IN THE PROS: Saint Joseph s is currently re p resented in the NBA by 2004 first-round picks Jameer Nelson (Orlando Magic) and Delonte We s t (Seattle Supersonics), as well as 2005 A-10 Defensive Player of the Ye a r Dwayne Jones (Cleveland Cavaliers). CRADLE OF COACHES: The Saint Joseph s coaching connection is an impressive one. A total of seven Saint Joseph s graduates have gone on to become head coaches in the NBA, and SJU is now tied with Illinois for second on the list of universities with alums that have served as NBA head coaches. Indiana tops the list with 11 graduates that have coached in the league. Jim O Brien is the only current NBA head coach, now in his first season with the Indiana Pacers. Below is the list of former Hawks who have held positions as NBA head coaches: Player (Class) NBA Teams W-L (yrs.) Jack Ramsay ( 49) Phila., Buf., Port., Ind. 864-783 (21) Jim Lynam ( 63) L.A.

Lakers, Indiana 1 35-205 (5) George Senesky ( 43) Philadelphia 119-97 (3) Jim O Brien ( 74) Indiana, Philadelphia, Boston 182-158 (5) CHAMPION FOR A CAUSE: Phil Mart e l l i s passion extends to his work in the community and his eff o rts with Coaches vs. Cancer are tireless. Martelli and the five other Division I coaches in the city (Drexel, La Salle, Penn, Te m p l e, Villanova) comprise the Philadelphia Coaches vs. Cancer group, which has become one of the most successful group in the nation. The six coaches raised over $800,000 last year to fight the disease, while setting a goal of $1 million for this year. The group was honored with the Coaches vs. Cancer Champion Aw a rd by the NABC at the 2004 NCAA Final Four. Martelli and his wife, Judy, were hono red in early November 2007 for their work and presented with the Inspiration Aw a rd from the American Cancer Society. SPELL IT OUT: The corporate title of Saint Joseph s University, which has been in place since Saint Joseph s was granted university status by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in 1979, is now the public title of the institution for all aspects of its operations. Previously, the abbreviation of St. was permitted in a number of alumni and athletic contexts. The University should be referred to as Saint Joseph s. The abbreviations SJU or St. Joe s are acceptable in headlines or certain informal references. DIVISION I WINNING PERCENTAGE OVER LAST 4 SEASONS (prior to start of 2007-08) 1. Gonzaga.822 2.

2007-08 SAINT JOSEPH S BASKETBALL - PG. 8 MARTELLI THE AUTHOR In 2007, Phil Martelli added a new title to his resumé - that of author. M a rtelli came out with his first book in September, entitled Don t Call Me Coach: A Lesson Plan for Life. The book is cowritten by the Hawks coach and Haro l d Gullan, Ph.D. In the book, Martelli passes on what he has learned from his own rich experience, which includes over 30 years of coaching at the high school and college levels. One of America s most colorful, outspoken, and successful coaches, M a rtelli compresses his three decades of experience into a 10-point lesson plan for life that will benefit anyone, no matter what the challenges may be. He speaks equally to teachers, parents, educators, and business executives in short, to anyone who plays the role of coach in daily life. Gullan, a noted historian and sports fan, is also the author of The Upset That Wa s n t, Faith of Our Mothers, First Fathers, and Jumping Through Hoops. The book, which includes a forw a rd from Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell, was published by Camino Books of Philadelphia (www. c a m i n obooks.com). FIELDHOUSE EXPANSION PROJECT A major expansion of Alumni Memorial Fieldhouse and a dedicated center for men's and women's basketball highlight a comprehensive plan for enhancing varsity and recreational athletics at Saint Joseph s. Construction on the project began in the fall of 2007. As the home of the Hawks, the Fieldhouse is the well-loved shrine and the very heart of Saint Joseph s athletics. The expansion and renovation is an integral part of With Faith and Strength to Dare: The Campaign for Saint Joseph s University, and will preserve the storied facility while bringing the athletic complex to a level befitting such a venerable tradition. The Fieldhouse, home to Saint Joseph s University basketball since 1949, will be named for Michael J. Hagan 85 at the conclusion of the multi-year project set to begin this fall. Because of the Maguire Campus (former Episcopal Academy) acquisition, the vast needs of the University s intramural program and several varsity sports will finally be addressed, creating an opportunity to dramatically improve the infrastructure for men s and women s basketball. The three-phased project will begin with the construction of a two-story, 20,000-square-foot new wing adjacent to the existing Fieldhouse. It will add locker rooms, offices, and study rooms for men s and women s basketball, and a new Athletic Hall of Fame room. Phase II will upgrade and renovate the current sports complex by adding a dedicated practice facility with permanent wood flooring as well as locker rooms and offices for soccer, lacrosse, track, and cross country. Phase III will include a complete overhaul of the interior of the fieldhouse, followed by the construction of an upper-level concourse, expanded seating (a minimum of 1,000 seats will be added), and more. Home court advantage will be secured, and the Saint Joseph s athletic tradition will live on for years to come. Events in the new facility could begin as early as 2010. THE HAWK The Saint Joseph s Hawk mascot has been flapping its wings for more than a half a century, and celebrated its golden anniversary in 2005-06. One of the most famous mascots in college sports, the Hawk is best known for staying in constant motion by flapping its wings throughout every basketball game and representing the Saint Joseph s motto, The Hawk Will Never Die. The idea for the Hawk as a mascot was originated by Jim Brennan during the 1954-55 season. Brennan, an ex-marine and SJU cheerleader, at first wanted to secure an actual hawk, but later switched to the costume idea. The student government raised the 120 dollars needed to buy the initial costume, which Brennan donned for three years. He made his debut as the Hawk on January 4, 1956, a 69-56 win over La Salle at the Palestra. The Hawk has not missed a men s basketball game since that first season. In addition to the constant flapping, the Hawk is also recognized by its flying in figure eights around the court during timeouts. The constant motion, coupled with the scrappy play of the University s athletic teams, helped to spawn the school s familiar slogan The Hawk Will Never Die! A few years ago, ESPN used a flap-o-meter on the national telecast of a Saint Joseph s game to estimate that the Hawk flaps its wings 3,500 times during a regulation game. The Hawk is unique because it is one of the few mascots in the nation that travels to every game, and the student who holds the position gains a full scholarship. The student, who is selected through an interview process during the previous spring semester, also serves as a team manager for the men s basketball team and travels with the squad. Jim Miller is the Hawk mascot for the second straight year, and the 30th student to wear the wings. He is a senior public administration major from Broomall, PA. ON THE AIR TV: Five of Saint Joseph s regular-season games will be seen nationally this season, beginning with the continuation of the rivalry with Gonzaga on November 29 on ESPNU from the Fieldhouse. ESPNU will also show the Hawks game at local rival Temple (Jan. 26) while conference matchups with Saint Louis and Xavier will be seen on either ESPN or ESPN2. The annual rivalry with Villanova will be televised nationally by CSTV on February 4. Saint Joseph's will have a minimum of six conference games produced and broadcast regionally by CSTV, with the outlets to be announced. The complete broadcast schedule is on page 2. RADIO: All Hawk games will be broadcast this year on WNTP 990 AM and can be heard via audio streaming on www.sjuhawks.com. The Saint Joseph s Sports Network team of Tom McCarthy and Joe Lunardi will provide the play-by-play and color commentary, respectively, for the fifth consecutive year. McCarthy just completed his second year as the play-by-play announcer for the New York Mets radio broadcasts, after three years with the Philadelphia Phillies. He also announces numerous college basketball games for CSTV. Lunardi, in his 18th year on the Hawks radio broadcasts, is the assistant vice president for Marketing at Saint Joseph s, and is a college basketball analyst for ESPN.com with his popular Bracketology column. HAWKTALK : Phil Martelli s HawkTalk will return for its 12th season in 200708. The most unique coach s television show in college basketball, it was named the Best Coach s Show in the Nation by The Sporting News. Martelli s show combines a Tonight Show format with unique guests and just a few basketball highlights. The show will air locally on Comcast SportsNet beginning in January. INTERNET: Information for Saint Joseph s basketball is found at SJU s athletics website, www.sjuhawks.com with statistics, updated game notes, and live ingame statistics for all Hawk home games, and selected road games. Through Hawks All-Access, fans can watch and listen to every game from Alumni Memorial Fieldhouse through audio and video streaming. Video features on the team will also be available on the site.
