Canterino Steps Down as Head Women's Basketball Coach
One of the most recognizable names and faces in the Colonial States Athletic Conference (CSAC) has announced she is stepping down from coaching. Patricia Canterino '92, '12 M.A., will no longer roam the sideline as head coach of Immaculata's women's basketball program, but she will remain as Director of Athletics and Recreation at Immaculata.
Canterino leaves as the programs's all-time winningest basketball coach with 185 victories. She was equally dedicated to producing results in the classroom and helping her players balance athletics and academics; the 2014-15 squad was the latest to earn a spot on the WBCA's Top 25 Team Honor Roll, holding down the 14th position with a grade point average of 3.524. Canterino's teams ranked among the top 25 in GPA for three-straight years from 2009-10 to 2011-12. Learn More
Congratulations to Coach Canterino on all of her accomplishments!  Esbensen Named Head Women's Basketball Coach Immaculata University Director of Athletics, Patricia Canterino '92, '12 M.A., announced the hiring of Chrissy Esbensen '13 as the University's women's basketball head coach. Esbensen replaces Canterino, who stepped down as the women's basketball head coach after 15 years on the Mighty Macs sideline. Esbensen becomes the ninth women's basketball head coach of the program since the Mighty Macs won three-straight national titles in 1972-73-74. Congratulations and best of luck to Coach Esbensen this season! Read More
