Bob Malvagna has joined NYIT as the new head coach of the baseball team. His more than 20 years of experience includes serving as associate head coach at Adelphi, where he helped the Panthers earn two NCAA Division II Regional bids and five winning seasons. During his tenure at Adelphi, 13 student-athletes achieved All-East Region honors from Daktronics, American Baseball Coaches Association, Rawlings, and the National College Baseball Writers Association. In 2011, Malvagna left Adelphi to assist Nassau Community College to the NCAA Division III Region XV Tournament.

In addition, Michael Caputo was selected as head coach of the women’s soccer team. A former NYIT student-athlete, he played for the Bears’ soccer program from 1987 to 1989 and played professionally in Miami and Europe. After sustaining a leg injury, Caputo moved from the field to the front offices of the A-League and the N.Y./N.J. Metrostars of Major League Soccer.
