Coach Green's Take on the Game: "You expect the seniors to rise to the top in games likes this and Gordon and Chad did," said Head Coach Tom Green.
"Robert Morris' three point shooting just got to us in the second half," said Green. "They just put an incredible display that gave them life tonight. We didn't want to put them on the free throw line, we just wanted to play quality defense."
"You just can't underestimate the size factor," said Green. "Sometimes I feel sorry for people who face our guys underneath.I'm just thankful that we are 7-2 entering the second half of the conference season. We still have some tough games coming up."
Timberlake Takes Honors: Senior guard Chad Timberlake was named Northeast Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Week.
With Timberlake providing the impetus, Fairleigh Dickinson (10-8 overall) posted a 3-0 mark last week to stretch its win streak to four and move into a first place tie with Central Connecticut State at 7-2 in conference play.
Timberlake averaged 23.0 points, 6.3 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 2.7 steals and shot 53.6 percent from the field in an outstanding all-around week.
He exploded for a career-high 32 points and added five rebounds, seven assists and two steals as the Knights subdued Sacred Heart, 81-73, at the Rothman Center on Monday, then tallied 23 points and nine boards in a 66-49 win at St. Francis (PA) three days later. In a battle for first place at Robert Morris on Saturday, Timberlake capped off his week with 14 points, five rebounds, seven assists, two blocks and two steals. He scored the winning basket on a jumper in the lane with 12 seconds to play as the defending NEC champion Knights rallied from a six-point deficit in the final minute for an 84-83 victory.
The Brooklyn native is now eighth in the NEC in scoring at 14.6 ppg, and also ranks in the league's top-15 in steals (1.7 spg; fifth), assist-to-turnover ratio (1.74:1; sixth), assists (3.7 apg; seventh), field goal percentage (.470; 13th) and rebounding (5.2 rpg; 14th).

Fairleigh Dickinson matched its' season-highs of 21 assists and 11 blocked shots.
BracketBuster Finalized: Fairleigh Dickinson is heading to Wisconsin-Green Bay to face the Horizon League team in mid-February (date to be determined) in a matchup created out of the original pool of 100 men's basketball teams representing 18 conferences selected to participate in the BracketBusters presented by eBay.
Of the 100 teams, 26 were selected on Monday by ESPN to participate in the fourth annual BracketBusters presented by eBay -- a 13-game televised men's basketball event matching NCAA tournament hopefuls against each other on Friday, Feb. 17 and Saturday, Feb. 18. Last year's field included a potential of 64 teams representing 13 conferences (vying for 11 BracketBusters games).
For the remaining 74 teams in the "pool" that will not take part in televised games, an intra-conference home and home series was created. Wisconsin-Green Bay will visit Fairleigh Dickinson in November or December of 2006.
"We have been looking forward to finding out who we are going to play," said Head Coach Tom Green. "Todd Kowalczyk has done an excellent job of resurrecting the program and we hope it's going to be a very competitive game."
The Phoenix is currently 11-11 overall and 5-5 in the Horizon League following Monday night's 45-42 home win over Detroit. This is the first meeting between the two teams.
ESPN and ESPN2 will combine to televise six BracketBusters contests, ESPNU, the 24-hour college sports network, will televise five and ESPN360 will offer coverage of the remaining two. Game times and network assignments for the 13 matchups will be announced Tuesday, Feb. 7. This year's event will mark the first time games will be televised over two days. The first three years of BracketBusters, previously branded as Bracket Buster Saturday, featured every game on a Saturday.
The BracketBusters concept, named because of the success of teams from these conferences in NCAA Tournament play over the past years, provides participating programs with an opportunity to play top non-conference opponents approximately three weeks prior to Selection Sunday. Each conference selected their participating teams months prior to the season and the matchups for the event were determined by ESPN in conjunction with the conferences.
"We are thrilled at the opportunity to participate in this series," said Fairleigh Dickinson University Athletic Director David Langford. "Our team is playing very well right now and we're going to go to Wisconsin and introduce the Northeast Conference to the fans of Green Bay."
Number One in Your Program: Senior guard Chad Timberlake is averaging 18.6 ppg and shooting 51 percent from the floor in the last seven games (in which the Knights have gone 5-2).

Klaiber On the Move: A two-time first team all-NEC selection, Fairleigh Dickinson senior forward Gordon Klaiber will look to put a stamp on his career in 2005-06 as he attempts to lead the Knights to back-to-back conference championships. He entered the season as the NEC's leading active rebounder and second-leading scorer.
He is just the ninth player in FDU history to amass 1,000 points and 500 rebounds and is on pace to become just the 23rd player in NEC annals to reach 1,500 points and 500 rebounds and ninth player to hit 1,500 points and 750 rebounds.

Career Production: Junior forward Michael Peeples had an outstanding night at Canisius, notching a career-high 18 points on a career-high seven made field goals. He tied his career-highs of two blocks, four assists and two three-point field goals.

Starting Off Right: After recording 20 points or more in eight games last season, as well as three games with 30 or more points, Gordon Klaiber was able to score a team-high 20 points against Maryland, a top-25 team known for its pressure defense.
FDU Chosen to Participate in ESPN Bracket Buster Saturday: Fairleigh Dickinson has been chosen to represent the Northeast Conference in the fourth annual ESPN Bracket Buster Saturday on February 18, 2006. It marks the first time an NEC institution has been tabbed to participate in the event, which pits potential NCAA Tournament hopefuls against each other three weeks prior to Selection Sunday and will feature 11 nationally televised games selected from an expanded pool of 100 teams representing 18 conferences.
"We're proud to have Fairleigh Dickinson represent the NEC in this year's Bracket Buster field," said John Iamarino, NEC Commissioner. "FDU's strong effort vs. Illinois in the NCAA Tournament is a good example of how the Knights have historically played well against good non-conference competition."
Fairleigh Dickinson, the defending NEC champion, will play on the road, but will not learn of its opponent until late January, approximately three weeks prior to the event. As part of the agreement, all 11 of the Bracket Buster Saturday home teams, as well as the remaining 39 home squads competing in non-televised contests, will play a "return" game at the home facility of their opponent in November or December of the following season.
The Bracket Buster has expanded each of the last three years, with 18 teams participating in the inaugural 2003 event, 46 in 2004 and 64 in 2005. The selection of the 11 games to be televised will be made by ESPN, in consultation with commissioners of the participating conferences.
Fairleigh Dickinson captured its fourth NEC title in 2005, all of which have come under 23rd year head coach Tom Green, the winningest coach in NEC regular season and postseason history.
In the first round of the NCAA Tournament, the Knights played top-seed and eventual national runner-up Illinois to a first-half standstill, gaining instant recognition before a nationwide audience in a 12-point defeat.
Collegehoops.net Predicts: The Fairleigh Dickinson University men's basketball team has been projected to win the 2005-06 Northeast Conference (NEC) championship by Collegehoops.net and is listed at No. 142 in their top 144 teams in 144 days college basketball preview. Collegehoops.net is a leading independent college basketball website.
NEC Preseason Poll: With three returning starters, including two preseason all-NEC picks, defending tournament champion Fairleigh Dickinson has been chosen as the 2005-06 NEC men's basketball preseason favorite, according to a vote of the league's head coaches. The preseason rankings, along with the league's preseason all-conference team, were announced during a media teleconference with coaches on Wednesday as a prelude to the NEC's 25th anniversary season.
Looking to become the first league team since Rider in 1993 and 1994 to repeat as NEC champion, Fairleigh Dickinson earned nine of a possible ten first place votes from league head coaches, who were not allowed to vote for their own team.
Monmouth, last year's NEC regular season champion, finished tied for second in the poll with Wagner, which reached the 2005 NEC title game. The Seahawks received one first place vote, as did Long Island, which was picked fourth. Central Connecticut State and St. Francis (NY) finished tied for fifth in the poll, followed by Quinnipiac, Mount St. Mary's, St. Francis (PA), Robert Morris and Sacred Heart.
This marks the first time in 12 years and the third time in school history that Fairleigh Dickinson has been selected the NEC's preseason favorite by league head coaches.
Under the tutelage of 23rd year head coach Tom Green, the Fairleigh Dickinson program has captured four NEC championships, and has performed admirably in subsequent NCAA Tournament appearances on each occasion. Last March, the Knights trailed top-seeded Illinois by a single point at halftime before eventually succumbing, 67-55.
The Knights captured the 2005 NEC Tournament championship and earned the program's first trip to the NCAA Tournament since 1998. After finishing the regular season in second place, Fairleigh Dickinson defeated St. Francis NY (78-60), Long Island (70-62) and Wagner (58-52), all at home, to win the league crown.
Preseason Predictions: Five leading college basketball publications have selected the Fairleigh Dickinson University men's basketball team as the favorite to win the 2006 Northeast Conference title and return to the NCAA Tournament. Additionally, all five have tabbed senior forward Gordon Klaiber as the Preseason Player of the Year while two other Knights earned preseason all-conference honors.
The Knights were selected to capture first place in the Northeast Conference in Sporting News College Basketball preview. Sporting News also picked Klaiber to the Preseason All-Conference First Team and Player of the Year.
Fairleigh Dickinson was picked for a first-place finish in Athlon Sports and Street & Smith's College Basketball previews as well. In Street and Smith's forecast, Klaiber was selected to the All-NEC team and was tabbed as the top player in the conference. Athlon picked both Klaiber and senior guard Chad Timberlake to the All-Conference First Team and projected Klaiber to earn Player of the Year honors.
In the conference breakdown done by CBS Sportsline.com, FDU was chosen to finish at the top of the NEC. In the preseason picks, Timberlake and Klaiber were slotted in the first team, while Klaiber was tabbed as the Player of the Year.
In Lindy's Basketball preview, Fairleigh Dickinson was predicted to take first place in the conference and both Klaiber and Timberlake were selected to the All-Conference First Teams. Junior center Andrea Crosariol was honored with a second team prediction. Timberlake was given the superlative of "Most Versatile" in the magazine's honor roll and Klaiber was selected as the "Best NBA Prospect".
Knights in the NCAA Tournament: In their three previous trips to the NCAA Tournament (1985, 1988, 1998), all under current Head Coach Tom Green, the Knights have given each of their first round opponents a scare, but fell short.
