Casey Stanley, Tom Abatemarco joining Rick Pitino’s Iona staff
Rick Pitino’s coaching staff at Iona is starting to take form.
Josh Thomson of Lohud.com reported on Tuesday that Casey Stanley and Tom Abatemarco are set to join Pitino’s staff.
I'm also hearing that Tom Abatemarco will join Rick Pitino's staff at Iona. He is a Long Island native and considered a strong recruiter.
The 70-yo has over 40 years of experience and last coached with Florida Gulf Coast. He was at Iona way back in 1975-77. #ICMBB #MAACHoops https://t.co/bZpKmglOVF
