As a student manager for the Niagara University Men’s Basketball team from 2021 to 2025, I supported the daily operations of a Division I program under Head Coach Greg Paulus. My responsibilities included setting up and breaking down practices, managing equipment and player gear, and maintaining locker room standards. I filmed and logged practices and games using Hudl and assisted the coaching staff with film breakdown and scouting preparation. I also provided on-court support during drills and individual player development sessions, ensuring practices ran efficiently. On game days, I helped coordinate bench setup, hydration, and pre- and postgame logistics. Additionally, I assisted with travel preparations such as gear packing and venue setup. This role allowed me to build strong relationships with players and staff while gaining valuable experience in basketball operations, logistics, and team management.
