Steve Lappas assumed the reins of the Villanova men's basketball program in 1992, and
since then, the Wildcats program has achieved unparalled success. Over the past six years,
Villanova has vaulted back into the national sportlight, capturing numerous Big East
Titles and returning to the NCAA Tournament. Virtually each year Lappas has taken to the
hardwood while servinng as the Wildcats coach, villanova faithful have been party to
exciting basketbal and thrilling victories.
Winning is not the only benchmark of the Lappas Regime, as player
development has also become an important signature of his tenure. When players come to
Villanova, they are certain to improve every aspect of their game. Kerry Kittles is a
prime example of this fact. The New Orleans native was not ranked among the nation's top
50 high school players when he arrived on the Main Line in 1992, but left Villanova as one
of the most heralded players in school history, as well as an All-American, as well as a
top ten NBA draft pick. Kittles' improvement is a credit to Lappas and his staff and their
teaching ability, but it doesn't stop with one player. Jason Laswson and Alvin Williams
are two more of the many examples of good high school players who improved and achieved
all Big East status and NBA contracts. Simply put, at Villanova, coaching and teaching go
hand in hand-Lappas has seen to that, and the NBA has taken notice.
Prior to his arrival at Villanova University,
Lappas achieved great success as the head coach of Manhattan College. The New York City
native erned MAAC Coach of the Year honors in 1992 after guiding the Jaspers to a 25-9
overall record, their best finish in school history, and a third round appearance in the
NIT appearance. It was the culmination of a four-year period in which the Manhattan
program had done a complete about-face. Lappas had enginnered a conference championship
out of a team that had only won 75 games from 1980 until his arrival in 1988.
Coach Lappas and his staff will be available
every day during your camp session for personal instruction as well as lectures and
clinics.
