<strong>Manhattan</strong> <strong>College</strong> Athletic Director Bob Byrnes, Steve Masiello and <strong>Manhattan</strong> <strong>College</strong> President Brennan O’Donnell, Ph.D.” <strong>Manhattan</strong> <strong>College</strong> named Steve Masiello its 23rd head men’s basketball coach in program history on April 11, <strong>2011</strong>. Masiello arrived back in his native New York after spending six years in the Big East as an assistant at Louisville under head coach Rick Pitino. Over his six-year tenure at Louisville, he helped lead the Cards to a 148-61 (.708) overall record, six straight 20-win seasons and four NCAA Tournament appearances, advancing to the Elite Eight twice (2008 & 2009). Masiello played a vital role in building Louisville’s 2009 Big East Championship team which won 31 games, including a program record 16 in conference, and entered the NCAA Tournament as the No. 1 overall seed. “I am honored and humbled to be the next coach of <strong>Manhattan</strong> <strong>College</strong>,” stated Masiello. “I am eager to lead the Jaspers back to prominence as being a premier program in the conference, and reestablishing our rich tradition and winning history.” One of the nation’s most renowned recruiters, Masiello effectively directed the Cards’ recruiting efforts by signing four Top-20 recruiting Masiello’s Winning Ways Jaspers head coach is no stranger to success As an Assistant Coach University of Louisville (2005 – <strong>2011</strong>) 2005-2006 21-13 NIT Semifinals 2006-2007 24-10 NCAA Tournament Second Round 2007-2008 27-9 NCAA Tournament Elite Eight 2008-2009 31-6 NCAA Tournament Elite Eight (No. 1 Overall Seed), big East Champions 2009-2010 20-13 NCAA Tournament Second Round 2010-<strong>2011</strong> 25-10 NCAA Tournament First Round 148-61 (.708) classes, which included four McDonald’s All-Americans over his time in Louisville. The Cards’ 2008 recruiting class garnered a No. 4 national ranking, featuring 2008 USA Today High School National Player of the Year and future NBA player Samardo Samuels. Masiello was named one of the nation’s Top 25 collegiate assistant coaches according to FoxSports.com (2010) & Rivals.com (2007). He managed the Cards’ game preparation and scouting responsibilities for his last three years with the program as Louisville amassed a 76- 29 (.724) overall record, including a 39-15 (.722) mark in the Big East during this stretch. “Steve has been a tireless worker in his six years at Louisville,” explained Cardinals head coach Rick Pitino. “I’ve seen him grow from a ball boy with the New York Knicks to an outstanding teacher of the game. I’m real proud of his efforts and I know he will do an unbelievable job turning <strong>Manhattan</strong> back into a winner.” Masiello returns to Riverdale, where he helped lead <strong>Manhattan</strong> to three postseason appearances in four years (2001-05) as an assistant coach, which included two trips to the NCAA Tournament (2003 & 2004) and one to the NIT (2002). Under his tutelage, the Jaspers posted an 83-36 (.697) overall record and won the 2003 & 2004 Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Championships. Masiello was a key contributor on the Jaspers’ coaching staff which helped lead <strong>Manhattan</strong> to its third NCAA Tournament victory in program history in 2004, defeating Florida in the First Round. “Steve is a winner who has had success at each of his previous coaching stops and during his collegiate playing career at Kentucky,” said <strong>Manhattan</strong> <strong>College</strong> Director of <strong>Athletics</strong> Bob Byrnes. “We are extremely fortunate to hire a well-respected, highly experienced coach who is familiar with building a winning tradition here at <strong>Manhattan</strong> <strong>College</strong> from his days as an assistant.” Prior to <strong>Manhattan</strong>, Masiello served as the administrative assistant at Tulane under head coach Shawn Finney for one year (2000-01). A 2000 graduate of the University of Kentucky with a degree in communications, Masiello was a four-year member of the Wildcats’ basketball team, playing under head coaches Rick Pitino (1996-97) and Tubby Smith (1997-2000). During his playing career, Kentucky went to the Final Four twice (1997 & 1998), advancing to the National Championship game both times and winning the title in 1998. Masiello was named the Wildcats’ co-captain his senior year. Masiello hails from White Plains, N.Y., and attended Archbishop Stepinac High School. He completed his final two years at the Harvey School in Katonah, N.Y., where he helped the basketball program win the New England Prep School Athletic Association Championship. Masiello also served as a ball boy for the New York Knicks during his youth. <strong>Manhattan</strong> <strong>College</strong> (2001 - 2005) 2001-2002 20-9 NIT First Round 2002-2003 23-7 NCAA Tournament First Round, MAAC Champions 2003-2004 25-6 NCAA Tournament Second Round, MAAC Champions 2004-2005 15-14 83-36 (.697) Playing Career University of Kentucky (1996 – 2000) 1996-1997 35-5 NCAA Tournament Finals, SEC Champions 1997-1998 35-4 National Champions, SEC Champions 1998-1999 28-9 NCAA Tournament Elite Eight, SEC Champions 1999-2000 23-10 NCAA Tournament Second Round (served as Wildcats’ co-captain) <strong>12</strong>1-28 (.8<strong>12</strong>) <strong>Manhattan</strong> <strong>College</strong> President Brennan O’Donnell, Ph.D, The Honorable Rudolph W.
