Having established the CalPoly men’s basketball teamas the Big West Conference’s

elite defensive program and with theMustangs enjoying their most suc-cessful period in the Division I era,Joe Callero is in his seventh seasonas head coach. Under Callero, Cal Poly’s 49 BigWest victories rank as the highesttotal over a six-year period in pro-gram history while the team’s 90total wins rank as the highest six-year total in 23 seasons. The Big West’s dominant defen-sive program, Cal Poly has led theconference in fewest points allowedper game for the last five seasonswhile ranking as one of the nation’stop 40 defensive programs in four ofthe last five years. Also one of the nation’s most effi-cient squads, Cal Poly ranked sec-ond last season among 345 DivisionI programs with just 8.8 turnoverscommitted per game. During theprevious three seasons combined,Cal Poly has led Division I with just9.1 turnovers committed per game. Additionally, Cal Poly ranks firstamong Big West programs duringthe previous four years with a com-bined 1.31-to-1 assist-to-turnoverratio. Through Callero’s direction, CalPoly’s finish to the 2013-14 seasonranked as one of the most notableathletics achievements in universityhistory. The first and only No. 7 seedin the 40-year history of the Big WestConference Tournament to claim thecrown, Cal Poly swept aside sec-ond-seeded UC Santa Barbara, No.1 UC Irvine and fifth-seeded CSUNto earn the program’s first Big Westchampionship and first NCAA

Division I Tournament berth. At theNCAA Tournament First Four, theMustangs topped fellow No. 16 seedTexas Southern to record the pro-gram’s first postseason win in 32years and the only NCAATournament victory by a Big Westprogram in the last 10 seasons.Despite falling to top-seeded WichitaState in the second round, Cal Polyfinished the year ranked fifth nation-ally in fewest turnovers per game(8.9) and 37th in points allowed pergame (63.6). Individually, Cal Poly has pro-duced nine All-Big West selectionsunder Callero while, in 2014, ChrisEversley became the first Big WestTournament Most Valuable Playerselection in program history. With areputation for refining talent, Callero– who coached NBA championBrian Scalabrine at USC (1998-99) –has helped produce nine profession-al players at Cal Poly. Most recently,Eversley (2010-14) signed withBelgian first division clubKangoeroes Basket Willebroekwhile guard Amaurys Fermin (2009-12) was named 2013 Rookie of theYear in the Dominican Republicnational league and guard Drake U’u(2009-13) helped the Perth Wildcatsto the 2014 Australia NationalBasketball League championship. Cal Poly annually competesagainst the nation’s best programs inhigh-profile environments. Duringthe 2014-15 season alone, theMustangs squared off againstnationally ranked Gonzaga, SaintMary’s and California, faced twomore teams that made the NCAATournament (Northeastern, UCIrvine) and played nine nationally tel-evised games. In the classroom, the Mustangshave performed exceptionally underCallero’s guidance with all 16 seniorplayers during the previous four sea-sons earning degrees. Cal Poly’sfour-year NCAA Academic ProgressRate score of 976 between 2010-11and 2013-14 is above the nationalaverage for Division I programs.

In support of Cal Poly’s talent, win-ning ways and nationally recognizedstyle of play, the Mustang programhas experienced a 34.8 percentincrease in attendance between the2008-09 campaign (the final seasonprior to Callero’s arrival) and last sea-son’s average of 2,411 fans perhome game. The 2,411-fan averagefrom the 2014-15 season marked theprogram’s highest total in 12 years. Under Callero, Cal Poly is 49-29(62.8 percent) inside Mott AthleticsCenter and 31-19 (62.0 percent) inBig West home games. Between the2011-12 and 2013-14 seasons, CalPoly won 16 straight conferencehome games. Setting the stage for Cal Poly’s2013-14 championship season wasa 2012-13 Mustang squad that setprogram records for Big West victo-ries (12) and Big West winning per-centage (.667) en route to a secondsuccessive Big West Tournamentsemifinal appearance. An overall 18-win total helped Cal Poly match orexceed its victory total from the pre-vious year for the fourth successiveseason (a feat not accomplished for41years). The 2012-13 Mustangsalso finished 13-1 inside the MottAthletics Center to set Division I pro-gram records for home victories,fewest home losses and home win-ning percentage (.929). In topplingNo. 11 UCLA at Pauley Pavilion, theMustangs chalked up their first victo-ry against a ranked opponent and,as part of the CollegeInsider.comTournament, Cal Poly played theprogram’s first postseason game in27 years. Cal Poly also finished sec-ond nationally in fewest turnoversper game (9.4) and fourth in assist-to-turnover ratio (1.46-to-1). Cal Poly finished the 2011-12season ranked among Division Ibasketball’s top-25 defensive pro-grams for a second successive year.Along the way, Cal Poly produced an18-win season, reached the BigWest Tournament semifinals for thefirst time in five years and, during a100-54 victory against Cal State

Northridge, the Mustangs sank theirfirst 11 three-point attempts to matcha 25-year-old NCAA record. Selected to finish fifth in the BigWest standings during the 2010-11season, Cal Poly instead matchedsingle-season program records forhighest showing in the Big West(second) and highest seeding for theconference tournament (second).The Mustangs also cemented theirstatus as a defensive powerhouseby finishing third among NCAADivision I programs in opponentthree-point percentage and sixth inopponent points per game. Callero’s initial 2009-10 season atCal Poly yielded one of the top single-year turnarounds in program history.In orchestrating a five-win improve-ment from the previous year, Calleroalso directed the Mustangs to theirbest start to any Big West season (5-2). Predicted to finish last in the stand-ings, Cal Poly clinched the No. 6 seedfor the Big West Tournament andcapped the year by winning the pro-gram’s first conference tournamentgame in three seasons. Named head coach of Cal Polyon April 3, 2009, Callero has devel-oped a reputation for revitalizing pro-grams. As head coach at Seattle(2001-09), Callero directed theRedhawks to 75 victories during hisfinal four seasons and successfullyled the program through its Division Itransition. Callero’s final 2008-09season with the Redhawks pro-duced a 21-8 campaign and the pro-gram’s highest winning percentagein 45 seasons. Additionally, the2008-09 Seattle squad – as an inde-pendent program – finished No. 131out of 347 Division I programs in thefinal Sagarin Ratings. Under Callero, Seattle finishedthe 2006-07 season with a 20-9record, a Great Northwest AthleticConference title and the program’sfirst berth in the NCAA Division IITournament in 38 years. During justhis second season at Seattle (2002-03), Callero directed the Redhawksto a 16-11 finish that was the pro-

gram’s first winning campaign in nineseasons and a 10-victory improve-ment upon the previous year. Prior to success at Seattle,Callero guided Division III Universityof Puget Sound to a combined 22-25record during the 1999-00 and 2000-01 seasons. The Loggers finished14-10 during his final season tosecure the program’s first winningcampaign in nine years. Before pointing Puget Sound in awinning direction, Callero served the1998-99 season as an assistantcoach at USC. During his one sea-son in Los Angeles, Callero assistedthe Trojans to the NIT. A prominent figure on the north-west basketball scene for more thantwo decades, Callero compiled a130-49 mark during two three-sea-son stints at Highline CommunityCollege (1989-92, 1995-98) and,before departing for USC, helpedguide the Thunderbirds to succes-sive Northwest Athletic Associationof Community Colleges champi-onships.

With focus honed onfloor coaching,recruiting, game

planning and scouting and thedevelopment of Cal Poly’sbackcourt, Sam Kirby is in hisfifth season as an assistantwith the Mustang men’s bas-ketball program. Kirby’s influence on CalPoly’s guard play has beensubstantial with the Mustangsranking second among NCAADivision I programs during the

previous three seasons withjust 9.1 turnovers committedper game. Additionally, CalPoly has led the Big WestConference during the previ-ous four years with a com-bined 1.31-to-1 assist-to-turnover ratio. Individually under Kirby,guard Maliik Love graduatedin May ranked second in pro-gram history with 125 appear-ances and 11th with 210career assists. Guard JamalJohnson departed in 2014 asthe program’s all-time appear-ances leader (128) while rank-ing seventh with 303 assistsand producing a 2.05-to-1career assist-to-turnover ratio.All-Big West selection DylanRoyer finished fifth (2011-12)and 18th (2012-13) in three-

Cal Poly’s backcourtstrength has contributed direct-ly to the program’s overall suc-cess with the Mustangs captur-ing the program’s first Big WestConference championship in2014 and reaching the NCAATournament second round. “Sam continues to developinto a top-level trainer,recruiter and game-daycoach,” said Cal Poly headcoach Joe Callero, whocoached Kirby at SeattleUniversity during the 2005-06and 2006-07 seasons, the lat-ter year resulting in a 20-9overall record, a GreatNorthwest Athletic Conferencetitle and the program’s firstNCAA Division II Tournament

berth in 38 years. “Sam’s feelfor the game as well as ouryoung players is excellent. Iwas fortunate to coach him asa player and even more fortu-nate to have him as my assis-tant.” Kirby arrived at Cal Poly fol-lowing a one-season stint atCañada College (RedwoodCity, Calif.) where he wasinvolved in all aspects of on-court coaching, strength andconditioning, recruiting andperimeter player developmentin helping the Colts to a 20-6overall record, a second-placefinish in the Coast Conferencewith an 8-4 mark and a finalNo. 7 ranking in the CaliforniaCommunity College AthleticAssociation coaches poll.Kirby also spent two seasons

With Paul’s leader-

ship, I look forward to the contin-ued progress of Mustang bas-ketball.” With Fortier on the bench lastseason, Cal Poly led all BigWest programs in fewest pointsallowed per game for a fifth suc-cessive year while the team’s8.8 turnover-per-game averageranked second among 345Division I programs. Individuallyunder Fortier last year, forwardBrian Bennett earned All-BigWest praise after finishing 64thnationally with a 50.7 percentfield goal mark while forwardJoel Awich ranked fifth amongBig West players with 1.3 blocksper game. During his initial 2013-14season at Cal Poly, Fortierassisted the Mustangs to theprogram’s first Big WestConference championship andan NCAA Tournament secondround appearance.
