As part of the MAC100 centennial celebration, the Middle Atlantic Conference has announced its men's basketball All-Century teams. Albright was well represented, with seven players named to the list.

As a part of the MAC 100 celebration, the Middle Atlantic Conference will recognize top athletes from conference history, naming student-athletes to Century Teams in each sport from each era. Eras were delineated based on conference membership and sport sponsorship. The number of individuals selected per team varies depending upon the nature of the sport. Century Teams were selected from an online fan vote combined with the MAC Sports Information Directors vote. Team members will receive a commemorative gold coin, distributed to their alma matter. Century Teams will be announced at the conclusion of each respective sport season.

Tom Pearsall '63 was selected to the 1912-1966 team. The school's all-time leading scorer with 2,164 points, Pearsall led Albright to the 1961 MAC championship and was a four-time all-conference selection. He earned All-American honors in his sophomore, junior and senior seasons.

The 1967-1974 team included two Lions, including Bill Kudick '67. Kudrick led Albright to back-to-back MAC championships in 1965 and 1966, and was a Converse All-American in 1967.

Paul Mellini '74 finished his career just four points shy of the 2,000 mark. He was a second team All-American in 1972, and led Albright to the 1974 MAC championship. He played professionally in Greece and appeared in the European Cup.

Two Albright players were also named to the 1975-1982 team. Bill Carey '80 was a first team All-MAC selection three times, and earned All-American honors in 1979. He eclipsed 2,000 career points and was drafted by the New York Knicks.
