Sports Round Up

New Men's Basketball Coach

Welcome Mike Ruane to the UB community as the new head coach for the men's basketball team, as well as track coach and Sports Information Director. Mike comes to us from Philadelphia University - which is a member of our new NYCAC basketball conference - where he was assistant basketball coach for the past two seasons. "I was very impressed with his recent experience with a successful program at Philadelphia University," said Joe DiPuma, Director of Athletics at UB. Mike said he was confident that the Purple Knights will have a much better season next year due to our new conference membership and an increase to two full basketball scholarships.
Also, congratulations to senior Dave Lemanczyk who has been selected to play in the New England Basketball Coaches Division II Senior All Star Game.


Women's Softball

The women's softball team is off to a great start with 4-5 in conference which puts them in the middle rankings for the conference NECC.

Kudos for a fine season and an outstanding performance at the Nationals in Arizona!
