Slippery Rock, Pa. — Bluefield State rallied late to beat the Lock Haven men's basketball team 66-56 Friday night in the opening game of an Atlantic Region event hosted by Slippery Rock.

Jimmy Terwilliger shares final thoughts on ESU football's PSAC Championship preparation

EAST STROUDSBURG – For the first time since 1983, East Stroudsburg University football is aiming to bring the PSAC Championship back to the Poconos. The Warriors (9-1, 6-0 PSAC) are traveling out west for a rematch with Slippery Rock (10-0, 7-0). This was a destination ESU head coach Jimmy Terwilliger and the program always thought they could reach, forgoing any travel arrangements for Lock Haven, which would’ve been the regular season finale had they not reached the championship. As far as the mentality of his team, however, Terwilliger said that has not changed. “We've prepared in the same way we prepared for every game up to this season,” Terwilliger said. “Our focus has been one play at a time, 4-6 seconds, winning every meeting, every practice, every drill, every wrap, every play. And that has not changed.” Best on the Mountain: Pleasant Valley's Chris Ward voted 2026 Pocono Record Offensive Player of the Year It’s unchartered territory for the current iteration of the program; ESU has played in a national semifinal game, and several playoff games, more recently than it has a conference championship. That means for the players, the coaching staff, and Terwilliger himself, there are no memories to
