From Notre Dame Champ to Bucknell Assistant Coach
Danielle Patterson, a NYC native and key reserve on Notre Dame's 2017-18 NCAA championship squad (48.7% FG), transferred to St. John's where she averaged 6.7 PPG and 2.6 RPG over 2021-23, erupting for 20 points in a historic upset over No. 4 UConn and shining with 13 points in their NCAA First Four loss to UNC. Her career 47.4% FG shooting, 37.3% from three, and gritty intensity make her a championship pedigree coach—now bringing that winning edge to Bucknell women's basketball since summer 2025. Perfect fit for teams seeking proven leaders with big-game DNA.
