Hinsdale Bobcats Drub Ellicottville Eagles

[ziggy]

For those of you who may have overlooked in Saturday mornings OTH the Hinsdale Bobcats crush the Ellicottville Eagles. The Bobcats, coached by Gary Cuddy (SBU grad), are looking good so far this year. The Ellicottville Eagles, (Tim Bergan) coached by one of the saltier characters in this area, were simply out played!

I can't believe the Ellicottville coach would let this happen to his team. This guy is a "coaching legend." Go get them Bobcats!!!!

I thought COACH CUDDY was a BUFFALO STATE grad?

To clarify, this according to the Hinsdale Bobcats sports directory, Coach Cuddy did indeed graduate from Buffalo State with his undergraduate degree. However, he pursued a graduate degree from Saint Bonaventure University. Sipowicz, we are both right!!!!!!!

I am amazed the news of this made it to Warsaw Poland!
Thanks for the kind words Ziggy!

The frustrating thing about coaching at the small HS level is, your talent level from year to year ebbs and flows. Believe me, this one had little to do with coaching and more to do with ... we're a bit up, they are a bit down!

Coach Bergy will have forgotten a whole heck of a lot more about coaching basketball, then I may ever learn!

But isn't Tim Bergan an SBU grad also?? circa 1971

I believe after a short stint at Arizona State, he did in fact come back to SBU. Was at SBU during the glory days of the early 70s and have heard him recant memories of the time!

He is one Hell of a coach!

I chuckle at the characterization of him being a "salty character".

Tim Bergan was QB for the last Bona Club Football Team in 1970.

Tim graduated from SBU in '74. Destroyed a lot of "Gray Matter" with him. He is a good man, always comes for the "Stax" tournamnent every year.
