First-Class<br />

Training Facilities<br />

<strong>Bucknell</strong> men’s basketball student-athletes have<br />

at their disposal practice and training facilities<br />

that are at the head of their class.<br />

On non-game days, Sojka Pavilion transforms into a<br />

multi-purpose practice court. The retractable grandstands<br />

allow for as many as eight baskets to be put into<br />

use, while at the same time letting the team practice<br />

every day on its home game floor.<br />

The men’s basketball team has its own private, newly<br />

refurbished locker room, featuring a large-screen television<br />

and state-of-the-art video technology for team<br />

meetings and film study.<br />

The interior decoration, including installation of hard<br />

maple lockers and stools, was updated in 2007-08.<br />

As part of the 10-year-old Langone <strong>Athletics</strong> & Recreation<br />

Center complex, the spacious Berger Family<br />

Weight Room includes varsity-only space for the Bison<br />

teams to train under the tutelage of full-time strength<br />

& conditioning coach Jerry Shreck and his staff.<br />

Also under the Langone <strong>Athletics</strong> & Recreation Center<br />

roof is a state-of-the art Sports Medicine Center that<br />

features numerous treatment modalities, including<br />

electric stimulation, ultrasound, hydrotherapy and<br />

cryotherapy. The hallmark of the complex is its two<br />

hydrotherapy tubs (one hot and one cold). Each can<br />

hold between 6-10 athletes.<br />
