Mustang Athletics Brings New Men's Basketball Coach Onboard
SAN LUIS OBISPO --
Cal Poly Athletics today announced its new men's basketball coach: Joe Callero. Callero coached the men's basketball team at Seattle University and led the university's return to NCAA Division I basketball.
Last season, Callero coached the Seattle U Redhawks to a 13-8 record in their first season back in Division I. In Seattle, he had a record of 117-105 in eight years, with five winning seasons.
The new coach said he's eager to get started at Cal Poly. At the press conference in Mott Gym announcing his appointment April 3, he compared the Central Coast and Cal Poly to Camelot: "it's perfect."
