The Buffalo Stampede was a basketball team in the Atlantic Coast Professional Basketball League (ACPBL) that started as a franchise in the Premier Basketball League (PBL) in the 2009 season. The team was originally the NexxNow Buffalo Dragons (called Buffalo Dragons in shorthand) The team was first owned by NexxNow Inc. However, Vincent Lesh, the owner of the modern American Basketball Association Buffalo Sharks (the team formerly known as the ''Silverbacks'' and ''Rapids'') folded that club, left the ABA, and bought the Dragons from NexxNow, renaming them the Buffalo Stampede. The team was to play their home games at the Burt Flickinger Center at Erie Community College,〔 however with Lesh's purchase they moved to what was going to be the Sharks venue, the Koessler Athletic Center at Canisius College. On December 15, the team announced that head coach Richard Jacob stepped down and would be replaced on an interim basis by General Manager Roosevelt Bouie. On December 23, John Fitzpatrick was named head coach. On March 22, 2009, Fitzpatrick was removed as head coach with Roosevelt Bouie running the team for its final two games. For 2010, Lesh hired Jim Condill as the head coach of the Buffalo Stampede. In February 2010, Condill resigned and Vern Hall, his assistant coach, took over. On May 24, 2010, the PBL announced that the league was severing ties with the Stampede. On August 10, 2010 the Stampede announced their move to the ACPBL and a pending change in venue to Daemen College. After playing one season in the ACPBL, the Stampede folded, their place in the ACPBL being taken by a team called the Buffalo Warriors. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Buffalo Stampede」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
