Anthony DiClemente is in his fourth season as an assistant coach with the Adelphi University women's basketball team in 2020-21.
In addition to coaching six NE10 All-Conference selections in his short tenure at Adelphi, DiClemente helped guide the Panthers to one of their best seasons in program history in 2019-20.
That historic year saw the Panthers open the season on a 16-game winning streak, en route to finishing the year at 27-3 overall and capturing an NE10 Southwest Division regular-season title. The Panthers outscored their opposition by an overwhelming average of 17.4 points per game and limited teams to the third-lowest three-point field-goal percentage (.250) in all of Division II.
Adelphi, which ranked as high as No. 8 in the WBCA Division II Poll, earned the No. 1 seed in the NCAA Division II East Region Championship, but the prevailing COVID-19 crisis canceled the tournament before it began.
A 2017 graduate of Stony Brook University with a degree in Business Marketing, DiClemente was a practice player with the Seawolves' women's basketball team as an undergraduate.
Having volunteered in CYO basketball in his community, DiClemente spent four years as a junior counselor with the Willow Road Elementary School Summer Recreation Program as a native of Franklin Square, N.Y.
