basketball at four-year colleges and universities. Go Seahawks!"
DALE MURRAY

16th Season
CSU Stanislaus B.A., 1987
University of the Pacific M.A.T., 1990
When Tony Marcopulos became Cabrillo’s head coach on April 3, 2000, he envisioned a
bright future for the Seahawk basketball program. His years of experience, first as a player
and then as a NCAA Division 1 assistant coach had prepared him for the task ahead: Taking
over a program that had been losing for the last two decades and turning it into a winner.
Fifteen years later, the Cabrillo Basketball Program is thriving under Marcopulos’ direction.
His teams are successful both on the court and in the classroom. Plus, many former
Seahawks have continued their education and playing careers at 4-year schools.
Coach Marcopulos knows the important role community colleges play in the development of
young student-athletes. He also knows very well what Div. I programs across the country are
looking for in a student-athlete. His experience, knowledge, passion and work ethic have
made him an excellent addition to the Cabrillo College Athletic Department and an invaluable
asset to the men that he coaches.
AT CABRILLO
Since Marcopulos’ arrival in 2000 the Seahawks have made the steady climb from what was
one of the worst California Community College basketball programs in the state. For twelve
consecutive seasons the Seahawks have won 14 or more games. For eleven consecutive
seasons the Seahawks have been .500 or better. The Seahawks have been to the playoffs in
eleven of the last fourteen years. Three of those appearances have been to the Regional
Finals. Since 2004 Marcopulos coached teams have finished no lower than third place in the
Coast Conference South Division. From 2007 to 2014 the Seahawks finished no lower than
second with six Conference Championships and a combined record of 79-17.

T ONY M ARCOPULOS
PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE
Marcopulos was a Division I Assistant Coach for 12 seasons (1988-2000). He began his
coaching career at the University of the Pacific (Stockton, CA), where he worked alongside
Head Coach Bob Thomason for 11 seasons. Then, he joined the men's basketball staff at the
University of Portland for the 1999-2000 season.
Coach Marcopulos has first-hand experience in building a basketball program. When he
joined Thomason in Stockton, UOP had enjoyed only one winning season during the previous
nine years. That quickly changed. During the next eleven years Pacific had eight winning
seasons. Those 11 seasons included many highlights; two separate 16 game winning streaks
(1997-1998), the 1997 Big West conference championship, the 1998 Big West Western
Division championship, the school's first NCAA tournament appearance in almost 20 years
(1997), the school's first ever NIT Tournament appearance (1998), and the second longest
home court winning streak in the country behind Kansas at 32 in a row (1998). Pacific also
boasted a 90% graduation rate over that same time period.
After the 1998-1999 season Marcopulos left Pacific for a similar position at the University of
Portland. Marcopulos joined Head Coach Rob Chavez’s staff in August of 1999. The Pilots (a
member of the WCC (West Coast Conference)) went 12-16 on the year. After nine months in
Portland, Marcopulos was hired as the new Head Coach at Cabrillo College in April of 2000.
PLAYING CAREER
Marcopulos is a native of the Bay Area and attended Amador Valley High School in
Pleasanton. As a point guard, he led the Dons to four league championships and a four-year
record of 89-10. Upon graduating high school in 1982, Marcopulos went on to Columbia
Junior College in Columbia, California (82-84) where he played for Bob Thomason and
recorded seasons of 17-14 and 27-7. He then accepted a basketball scholarship to attend
Carroll College in Helena, Montana (84-85) before following Coach Thomason to California
State University, Stanislaus (Turlock, CA) (85-87) where he helped lead the team to a
conference title and a Division III NCAA tournament berth in 1987.

What 4 Year Coaches Are Saying About
Coach Marcopulos and Cabrillo Basketball
Dave Wojcik Head
Basketball Coach San Jose
State University
"Coach Marcopulos is a terrific teacher of the game and truly
cares about his players both on and off the court. It is very
evident in the success that he has achieved while at Cabrillo
College as well as the overall success of the student athletes that
have graduated from his program."
Rex Walters
Head Basketball Coach
University of San Francisco
"Cabrillo College has a really good one in Tony Marcopulos. I
know that his guys are going to be prepared to play Division 1
Basketball after playing for him. Coach Marcopulos does a great
job with Player Development and his players get coached
everyday by a man that knows what it takes to compete and win
at the next level. There is no doubt that we will always recruit
players that are getting coached by Tony."
Pat Fuscaldo
Sonoma State University
"Coach Marcopulos is an outstanding teacher, coach and leader.
He runs one of the best junior college programs in the State,
maybe the country. I've known Tony for twenty years and I've
met very few people with the communication skills that he
possesses. His involvement and compassion with his players on
and off the floor is a prime example of the kind of mentor that he
is. Coach T sent us one of the finest players we've every had, and
our first All-American."
Gus Argenal
Head Basketball Coach Cal.
State Univ. East Bay
"Coach Marcopulos is a proven winner and teacher. He prepares
his players for their next step in basketball and most importantlylife. His teams play the right way and compete for championships
very year."
Brad Barbarick
Concordia University
Portland, Oregon
"Tony Marcopulos is one of the finest college basketball coaches
I have ever observed. I have been fortunate the last couple of
years to recruit some Cabrillo players and have been able to see
first-hand the excellence that Coach Marcopulos runs his program
with. They are winners in every aspect and truly received a great
foundation under Coach Marcopulos at Cabrillo College. "
Stan Morrison
Former Athletic Director
UC Riverside (retired)
Bob Thomason
Recently retired 25 year
University of the Pacific
"The manner in which Coach Marcopulos has improved the
program year after year at Cabrillo College does not surprise
anyone who has ever known him as a coach and man. He has a
plan and is willing to pay a great physical and emotional
investment to see the plan through to a championship
conclusion. I would have wanted my son to play for Tony
Marcopulos. I cannot pay him a higher tribute."
"Tony (Marcopulos) was a great asset to the University of the
Pacific during his 11 years as my assistant (coach). He truly
understands the game of basketball, but more importantly he
understands the players. Tony is a great communicator which has
helped him get the most out of each and every player. Tony is
also a tremendous worker. He puts 100% into everything he
does. Whether it is changing a flat tire in the rain or putting
together a game plan to beat Georgetown, he is always working
hard. Most importantly, Tony is a great person. He cares deeply
about all his student-athletes and wants to see them succeed in
basketball and in life.

THE CABRILLO BASKETBALL EXPERIENCE
Cabrillo head basketball coach Tony Marcopulos was hired to lead the Seahawk program on April
3, 2000. In the thirteen years, he has made significant progress in building a foundation for both
present and future success. Prior to beginning his 14th season, he discussed his thoughts
regarding Cabrillo College, his team, his program and just what can be expected:
WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER TO BE SOME OF THE STRENGTHS OF THIS COLLEGE?
MARCOPULOS: The location of the campus and it’s close proximity to the beach obviously stand
out as tremendous assets to this college. Cabrillo, as an institution of higher education, is one of the
truly outstanding community colleges in the state of California. We have instructors here that are
committed to the growth and development of students. Lastly, Cabrillo is the kind of place where a
student-athlete can get an outstanding two-year education at an affordable cost, play intercollegiate
athletics and enjoy college social life in one of the most beautiful areas of the country.
WHAT WILL YOU PROMISE A STUDENT-ATHLETE IF HE COMES TO CABRILLO?
MARCOPULOS: What first comes to mind is what I will NOT promise. I will not ever promise a
recruit playing time....ever. They are promised zero minutes. They will earn whatever amount of
playing time they get.
However, there are some things that I’m willing to make promises about. First, I promise that they
will go to class each and everyday. Although I can’t guarantee that each player will graduate, I will
say that only one player who completed all four semesters with us failed to graduate. In my twenty
five years of collegiate coaching I have only coached four student-athletes who did not graduate
who finished their eligibility. I promise they will attend and be in an atmosphere that will be
conducive to attaining a degree.
Second, I promise they will be a much better player when they leave Cabrillo than when they came.
They will work harder on their game and be in better shape than they have ever been in their life.
They will be coached everyday.
Lastly, I promise they will be better people when they leave us than when they came. Not because
they are hanging around me everyday, although I do intend to have a very positive impact on their
life, but because I will surround them with teammates that are good people. It stands to reason that
if you are surrounded with good people, people of character, then that will impact you in a positive
way. Clearly, the opposite is true as well. Our teams are recruited based in large part on an
individual’s character.
Go to class, get better, be a better person. Other than that, I don’t make promises.
WHAT ARE THE BIGGEST STRENGTHS OF THE BASKETBALL PROGRAM?
MARCOPULOS: Our commitment to the development of our players is easily our biggest strength.
Student-athletes in this program will be challenged to excel in the classroom as well as on the
basketball court. We make every effort to ensure that our players receive the best college
basketball experience possible.
WHERE DOES CABRILLO RATE AMONG COAST CONFERENCE CONTENDERS?
MARCOPULOS: Our conference has traditionally been extremely competitive. The Coast
Conference South is perennially advancing several teams deep into the post conference
tournament championship. We will contend for the conference championship. Winning it and
advancing to the State Championship is our only goal.

2003-2004 SEASON
For the first time in over a decade, the Seahawks finished the season with a winning record, 14 wins against 13
losses. However, budget cuts reduced the state tournament field from 64 participants statewide to only
