Gerry McNamara Named Head Coach of Siena Men's Basketball

Former Syracuse star and assistant coach, Gerry McNamara, takes the helm at Siena College, marking his first head coaching role.

Gerry McNamara, celebrated for his tenure at Syracuse as both a player and assistant coach, has been appointed as Siena College's new head men's basketball coach.
McNamara replaces Carmen Maciariello, aiming to revitalize a Siena program that posted a 4-28 record last season.
During his time at Syracuse, McNamara was a key player in the 2003 national championship win and later served as associate head coach.
Siena College, hoping to leverage McNamara's extensive experience and recruiting prowess, looks to return to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2010.
McNamara's hiring is part of Siena's broader strategy to elevate its basketball program and compete for Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Championships.
