2013 Outlook
Gettysburg is one of the most experienced teams entering the 2012-13 Conference season with three senior starters and two more senior contributors among the first off the bench. Zurn is one of the most dynamic players in the Centennial, while Bors and Constable provide size and depth up front. Brooks and Gordon are the headliners in the backocurt, while Emerusabe will only improve after a strong rookie campaign as sixth man. The Bullets missed the playoffs for the first time since 2004 but are poised to return to the postseason this winter.
The Henry T. Bream Physical Education Building was completed in January, 1962. Named in honor of former coach and administrator Hen Bream '24, the 3,000-seat gym is the main stage for the Bullets basketball, volleyball, and wrestling teams. In 2009-10, the gym received several major upgrades including a new floor, bleachers, lights, and sound system.
