Assistant Men's Basketball Coach

Masiello is entering his fourth season as an assistant coach with the Jaspers and his second as Gonzalez's top assistant.

Prior to coming to Manhattan, Masiello served as the Administrative Assistant under Tulane Head Coach and former Kentucky Assistant Coach Shawn Finney. Masiello graduated from the University of Kentucky in 2000 with a degree in Communications and played basketball for both Rick Pitino and Tubby Smith.

Following his junior year at Stepinac, Masiello attended the Harvey School in Katonah, NY. In his first year at Harvey, the school won the New England Prep School Athletic Association Championship. Masiello led the conference in scoring in his final year at Harvey and was among the nation’s high school scoring leaders averaging approximately 34 ppg.
