Phil Martelli Biography

Phil Martelli is one of the most popular and richest Basketball Player who was born on August 31, 1954 in Media, Media, United States. Philip Martelli Sr. (born August 31, 1954) is an American college basketball coach, currently an assistant coach for the Michigan Wolverines men’s basketball team and the former coach of the Saint Joseph’s Hawks men’s basketball team. He led Saint Joseph’s to seven NCAA Tournaments and six NITs in 24 seasons as head coach.

They would not duplicate that success until landing future Naismith College Player of the Year Jameer Nelson and former NBA players Delonte West and Dwayne Jones. With Nelson as point guard, Martelli led the 2003-04 Hawks to the greatest season in school history. The Hawks went 27-0 regular season. The Hawks lost to Xavier in the Atlantic 10 Tournament, and reached the Elite Eight, ultimately losing to Oklahoma State to finish with a record of 30-2. This is “officially” the deepest run that St. Joseph’s has ever made in the tournament; the 1960-61 team went all the way to the Final Four and won the third-place game, but that run was scrubbed from the books due to a gambling scandal. That year, Martelli was named Naismith College Coach of the Year.

In 2005-06, the Hawks returned to the NIT, eventually losing to Hofstra University. In 2008, Martelli led Saint Joseph’s to its first NCAA Tournament since 2004 with a team led by Pat Calathes and Ahmad Nivins. In 2014, the Hawks returned to the NCAA Tournament after winning their second Atlantic 10 Championship under Martelli, led by Langston Galloway, Ronald Roberts and Halil Kanacević. The Hawks went on to lose in overtime to the eventual 2013-14 National Champion Connecticut Huskies in the Second Round of the Tournament.

In 2007, Phil Martelli’s first book Don’t Call Me Coach: A Lesson Plan For Life was published. Students at SJU often say “In Martelli We Trust” about their beloved basketball coach. Martelli has a weekly show during the basketball season called Hawk Talk which discusses the standing of the university and the basketball team.

Martelli began his career on Hawk Hill with SJU’s 1985-86 NCAA Tournament team. In his decade as an assistant, he was part of the Hawks’ NIT teams in 1992-93 and 1994-95. After 10 years as an assistant under Jim Boyle and John Griffin, Martelli was named the 14th coach in school history on July 20, 1995, and just the third non-alumnus to coach the school.
