Manhat tan Integra tes Enhanced Ath le t i c Logos

As part of Manhattan College's new marketing and promotional campaign entitledThe Promise, the College introduced its newly enhanced primary athletic logos this summer.Working with SME Branding consultants, the traditional Block M logo was revamped, but stillretains a vintage look, which has been a mainstay throughout the athletic program's richhistory. Additionally, both a 'Manhattan' and a 'Jaspers' word mark were created to comple-ment the Block M logo.

Like the new College logo, the 'Jaspers' word mark displays the Lasallian Star ofFaith ("Signum Fidei") to symbolize the five core principles (faith in the presence of God,respect for all people, commitment to quality education, an inclusive community, and concernfor the poor and social justice) that guided the Christian Brothers in founding ManhattanCollege.

What ’s a Jasper?

The unique nickname of Manhattan College’s athletic teams, the Jaspers, comesfrom one of the College’s most memorable figures, Brother Jasper of Mary, F.S.C., whoserved at the College in the late 19th century.

One of the greatest achievements of Brother Jasper was that he brought the then lit-tle-known sport of baseball to Manhattan College and became the team’s first coach. SinceBrother was also the Prefect of Discipline, he supervised the student fans at ManhattanCollege baseball games while also directing the team itself.

During one particularly warm and humid day when Manhattan College was playing asemi-pro baseball team called the Metropolitans, Brother Jasper noticed the Manhattan stu-dents were becoming restless and edgy as Manhattan came to bat in the seventh inning of aclose game. To relieve the tension, Brother Jasper called time-out and told the students tostand up and stretch for a few minutes until the game resumed.

Since the College annually played the New York Giants in the late 1880’s and intothe 1890’s at the old Polo Grounds, the Manhattan College practice of the “seventh inningstretch” spread into the major leagues, where it has now become a time-honored custompracticed by millions of fans annually.

2011-2012 Manhattan Men’s Basketball Game Notes

Game 10 vs Fordham - December 7, 2011

The Steve Masiello coaching era at Manhattan officially began with the Jaspers excitingcome from behind 62-48 victory over NJIT in Riverdale. Jaspers' junior guard GeorgeBeamon filled the stat sheet with his eighth career double-double (15 points, 10 rebounds),while freshman Donovan Kates helped power a second half scoring surge and finished with10 points in his collegiate debut.

Manhattan overcame a seven point second half deficit and stole all the momentum to closeout the contest with a 23-5 run over the final 7:39. Kates hot shooting sparked the Jasperscomeback bid. The 6'6" guard from Hopkinsville, Ky. poured in eight of the Jaspers' 10unanswered points in a game shifting rush. Kates buried two big 3-pointers, which bookend-ed Michael Alvarado's go ahead layup at 6:52 (44-43). He then topped the run off with a pairof free-throws as it all happened within a three minute span.

Senior forward Roberto Colonette also made a lasting impression in his Manhattan debut,after missing the entire 2010-11 campaign due to injury. Colonette anchored the Jaspers'bench production with 11 points and eight rebounds over 15 minutes of action. Manhattanfreshman forward Emmy Andujar contributed seven points and five rebounds, whileAlvarado added six points to the Jaspers' scoring column.

The Jaspers built as much as a nine point advantage in the first half, but it was quicklyerased by three consecutive 3-pointers by NJIT senior guard Arjun Ohri within a two minutestretch. Manhattan battled to salvage a 28-27 edge at intermission. Beamon had nine of his15 points at the break.

Highlanders' senior guard Isaiah Wilkerson caught fire in the second half scoring 16 of hisgame-high 23 points to help propel NJIT to a 39-32 lead by the 11:16 mark. Wilkersonaccounted for eight points in the Highlanders' 12-2 surge.

Manhattan took advantage back-to-back trips to the free-throw line to work its way withinstriking distance of regaining the lead. Four straight free-throws by Andujar and Colonettemade it a one possession ball game (41-39) and set the stage for Kates shooting spree.The Jaspers' capitalized at the line converting 24-of-31 free-throw attempts (77.4%) in theballgame to NJIT's 57.1% (8-14) mark at the stripe.

The victory marked the Jaspers' fifth straight season opening win over NJIT and Manhattanis now 74-32 (.698) all-time in openers.

Brutus had eight of the 16 points during the run with two 3s, andthen he assisted McCabe-Moran's 3-pointer to cap the surge at 4:39 giving Manhattan a 28-21 advan-tage.

This time Manhattan needed an all around effort with eight players getting in the scoring column and the Jaspers'bench outscoring the Broncs 26-6. Jaspers' senior guard Kidani Brutus erupted for seven of his nine points in thesecond half to help anchor the bench production.

The Jaspers found their shooting stroke from 3-point territory in the second half, after coming up empty in all eightshot attempts from beyond the arc in the opening 20 minutes. In a game that featured 12 ties and nine leadchanges, Manhattan made its key surge with 6:41 remaining using a string of back-to-back-to-back 3s.

Game 10 vs Fordham - December 7, 2011

Manhattan 68, Saint Peter’s 42Dec. 4 - Draddy Gymnasium

Riverdale, N.Y.For the Manhattan College men's basketball team, the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) season couldn'thave started any better. After winning at Rider for the first time in nine years, the Jaspers were just as impressivein their first home conference game. Manhattan used a dominating defensive performance to notch a 68-42 vic-tory over defending MAAC champion Saint Peter's at Draddy Gymnasium.

The lead changed hands six times in the early going until a George Beamon jumper midway through the first halfput the Jaspers up 13-12. That bucket started a 10-0 run that saw Manhattan build a nine-point advantage, 21-12, with 4:24 remaining before halftime.

The rally was sparked by the Manhattan defense, as Rhamel Brown had five blocks in the first half, energizingthe crowd more and more with each one, and the Jaspers held Saint Peter's without a field goal for a span ofmore than eight minutes during their run. Manhattan took its largest lead of the half when Michael Alvarado'sjumper made it 23-13 at the 3:06 mark, and the Jaspers took a 26-19 advantage into the locker room.

Manhattan extended its lead to 16 points after back-to-back-to-back treys from Emmy Andujar, Mohamed Koitaand Beamon early in the second half, and Saint Peter's would not pull any closer the rest of the way. With theJaspers in front 48-32 and 9:14 left on the clock, Beamon sank a pair of free throws to start a 16-3 run thatincreased the lead to 29 points, 64-35, with 2:56 remaining. After notching a 16-point victory at Rider, Manhattantopped Saint Peter's by 26 points, 68-42.

Beamon was the only Jasper in double figures, notching a game-high 22 points. He added four rebounds, twoassists and four steals. Andujar added nine points, while Liam McCabe-Moran, Donovan Kates and Brown con-tributed seven points apiece. Brown flirted with a triple-double, matching his career-high with six blocks to goalong with nine boards. Manhattan shot 48.9 percent (23-of-47) from the field and outrebounded Saint Peter's37-26. The Jaspers shot 37.5 percent (6-of-16) from three-point land and 66.7 percent (16-of-24) at the charitystripe.

Blaise Ffrench led the Peacocks with 17 points off the bench. Darius Conley added seven points to go along witha team-high five rebounds and three blocks. Saint Peter's was held without a three-point basket in the game,going 0-for-7 from downtown. Overall, the Peacocks shot 32.6 percent (14-of-43) from the field and 58.3 percent(14-of-24) at the line.

With the win, Manhattan moved to 2-0 in the MAAC for the first time since the 2005-06 season.
