BRIAN KING President The Cabrillo College Men’s Basketball Team begins the 2011-2012 season seeking another championship in the Coast Conference South. They have won championships in three of the last five years for the first time in Cabrillo’s history, but these will not be the last for a program on the rise. Coach Tony Marcopulos has led the Seahawks to a winning record in each of the last seven years with an emphasis on tough defense. Good defense is all about effort, and the young men who play for Coach Marcopulos play hard in every game. I am very proud of our student athletes, many of whom will go on to study and play basketball at four-year colleges and universities. Go Seahawks! DALE MURRAY Director of Athletics “Welcome to Cabrillo College Men’s Basketball. The 2011-2012 schedule brings together some of the best basketball teams and players in Northern California. All of the athletes have combined academic and athletic talent to bring you a level of competition that exemplifies quality achievement under expert leadership.

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. Eleven 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 2007-2008 was a history making year. For the first time in school history the Cabrillo College Men’s Basketball program won the Coast Conference South Championship outright. 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 eight consecutive seasons the Seahawks have won 14 or more games. For nine consecutive seasons the Seahawks have been .500 or better. The Seahawks have been to the playoffs in nine of the last eleven years. Two of those eight 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. During the past five years, the Seahawks have finished no lower than second with three Conference Championships and a combined conference record of 47-13 during that time. 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. 6 T ONY M ARCOPULOS 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. EDUCATION Marcopulos received his undergraduate degree in Physical Education from Stanislaus State University. He later earned a Masters of Arts degree in Teaching (Physical Education) and a secondary school teaching credential (Physical Education) from the University of the Pacific. A member of the National Association of Basketball Coaches, Tony lives in Aptos and has two daughters Emma (5) and Sophia (3). 7 T ONY M ARCOPULOS –COACHING HISTORY 1987-88 James Logan HS Head Coach (Freshman) 1988-89 University of the Pacific 1989-90 University of the Pacific 1990-91 University of the Pacific 1991-92 University of the Pacific 1992-93 University of the Pacific 1993-94 University of the Pacific 1994-95 University of the Pacific 1995-96 University of the Pacific 1996-97 University of the Pacific 1997-98 University of the Pacific Assistant Coach Assistant Coach Assistant Coach Assistant Coach Assistant Coach Assistant Coach Assistant Coach Assistant Coach Assistant Coach Assistant Coach 20-8 7-21 15-14 14-15 14-16 16-11 17-14 14-13 15-12 24-6 23-10 Pacific’s 1st winning season since ’85-86 Highest league finish since ’79-80 (3rd) Big West Tournament Runner’s –Up Bob Thomason BWC Coach of the Year Back-to-back winning seasons 3rd straight upper division BWC finish Highest BWC finish (2nd place) since 1979 1st NCAA tournament appearance since 1979 1st NIT appearance/2nd straight BWC WD title Michael Olowokandi 1st player selected in NBA Draft (LA Clippers) 14-13 Thomason becomes Pacific all-time wins leader 12-14 1998-99 University of the Pacific Assistant Coach 1999-00 University of Portland Assistant Coach Overall record as a Collegiate assistant Coach: 176-145 ————————————————————————————————————————————————— 2000-01 Cabrillo College Head Coach 8-22 8 wins totaled more than the previous 3 yrs. 2001-02 Cabrillo College Head Coach 9-23 Back-to-back play-off appearance in over 2 decades.

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." Bob Thomason Head Basketball Coach University of the Pacific "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. Seth Greenberg Head Basketball Coach Virginia Tech University "Tony Marcopulos is the total package. He can teach, develop players, and is committed to their fulfilling their academic potential. He has the unique advantage of having what it takes to help his players play at the next level and has the expertise to help them achieve their goals." Jamie Dixon Head Basketball Coach University of Pittsburgh “Tony (Marcopulos) has been around a successful team his entire career. He has taken programs to heights never before reached. Having known Tony since he started at Pacific, I look for the rise at Cabrillo College to continue.” 10 DID YOU KNOW... *Former Seahawk Vince Inglima (02-04) went on to become a Div II All-American at Sonoma State University and just concluded has playing career as a professional player in Australia.

In the eleven years, he has made significant progress in building a foundation for both present and future success. Prior to beginning his 12th 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 eighteen 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. 14 Former Seahawks… Where Are They Now?

The Seahawks finished the season with a 19-9 overall record and a 9-3 conference record. The 9-3 conference record earned the Seahawks a tie with Hartnell for a share of the Conference Championship. Aaron Patterson was named the Conference MVP and First Team All-State. Chris Sharp was named to the Second Team All-Conference with Aaron Pearson and Dom Dunham both earning Honorable Mention AllConference honors. The Seahawks were seeded 9th in Northern California and traveled to West Hills College in Coalinga, CA for the first round playoff game.

With a record of 7-5 in the very competitive Coast Conference South, Cabrillo earned a 3rd-place finish behind only top-ranked West Valley College and #7 San Jose City College. A season-ending ankle injury to point guard Jeff Scott was a critical blow in the middle of conference play. The Seahawks, who were tied for first place at the time of his injury, were not able to maintain that same high level of play. Mike Scott, Jon Fontenberry, and Aaron Patterson each earned All-Conference recognition. Once again the Seahawks were one of the best defensive teams in the state, ranking 7th out of over 90 teams by allowing only 64.1 ppg. 2004-2005 SEASON One of the Cabrillo basketball program's best seasons in a long time ended with the Seahawks having earned 17 victories, the most wins under Head Coach Tony Marcopulos.

The Seahawks finished the regular season ranked #10 in Northern California and 20th in the state. Cabrillo finished 3rd in the extremely competitive Coast Conference South. 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 32. The Seahawks would have been the 17th seed in Northern California and were therefore not included in the field. This was the first time in Marcopulos' tenure that his team did not made the play-offs. 2002-2003 SEASON The 2002-2003 season was a breakthrough season for the Seahawks. For the first time in California State tournament history, the 28th seed advanced to the Regional Final as the Seahawks scored upset wins over 5th-seed Feather River College and 12th-seed Skyline College. The Seahawks finished with an overall record of 15-18, the most Cabrillo wins since 1985. Their 62-55 win over San Jose City College was the first victory over that school since 1970. All four sophomores continued their education and basketball careers at fouryear institutions. On the academic side, the team’s year-end GPA was 3.1. 2001-2002 SEASON For the first time in school history the Seahawks made the playoffs in back-to-back seasons.
