Stockard, who missed two full seasons with foot injuries and was sidelined three games last season due to various ailments, said at Wednesday’s media availability that he has yet to participate in contact drills. He anticipates a clearance for full contact in the next few weeks…
Bonnies coach Mark Schmidt is second in school history with 192 wins, 10 victories behind Larry Weise. Schmidt and Weise are the only coaches to lead SBU to two NCAA Tournament appearances…
A Bonaventure commitment announcement, before social media and before the Bonnies were a relevant basketball team again, used to be an understated affair. The school would issue a press release to announce the new recruit, the local newspaper would acknowledge the news with a few paragraphs and most fans wouldn’t see or think about the player until November…
Wednesday’s release was good to Bona Nation: Bonaventure is scheduled for 11 televised games, its third straight year in double-digits. The Bonnies will be host a Friday night contest on ESPN2 for the second straight year…
Pineda, who signed with the Minnesota Twins in December and is making a comeback from July 2017 Tommy John surgery, will not be rushed into major league action by a non-contending Twins club.

By CHUCKIE MAGGIO The St. Bonaventure men’s basketball program dedicated the months of April and May to shaping its 2018-19 roster and welcoming new talent. Now that all but one scholarship has been filled, the next order of business is underway: schedule season has begun. Bonaventure and Miami have entered serious discussions to play in […]
St. Bonaventure has never made back-to-back NCAA Tournaments. By reloading the roster with young scorers and length, adding both talented guards and a potentially great big man, Schmidt and company are sending a message: It’s time to make more history…
Gonsalves struck out 11 in 5.1 innings, including a first-inning punch out of the 2008 American League MVP, while allowing just four hits. He did walk Pedroia twice, accounting for two of the four walks he issued, but did not allow a run in the 2-0 victory…
