Sure, he only averaged 3.1 points per game in his three-year Marquette career from 2008-2011, but former basketball forward Joe Fulce still evokes fond memories from avid fans.

Before transferring to Marquette, Fulce played at Tyler Junior College in Texas and was a second team junior college all-American, averaging 16.6 points and 13.2 rebounds per game. At Marquette, Fulce battled a nagging knee injury that significantly limited his on-court effectiveness.

Perhaps Fulce’s greatest legacy with Marquette was his success in the yearly Marquette Madness dunk contest, which he won all three years he played for the Golden Eagles.

After working in the Marquette athletics department last year while finishing his degree, Fulce landed a job in Dallas working at Digital Intelligence Systems. CNN.com’s Jen Christensen wrote about Fulce in her April 2012 article on basketball players’ lives after college.

In the article, Fulce cited Marquette’s strong academic team in the athletic department for his success after college: “’I know they’d even ask the people who delivered the papers to the academic center if they’ve seen us and how long we’ve been there,’ he said, laughing. ‘They really stayed on me about my class work, because they cared. And, well, I felt like I had to give in to them at some point.’”

Fulce also runs his own company, JF21Club Basketball Training/Conditioning, based in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
