24 Ed DeChellis Head Coach Penn State (1982) Sixth Season at Navy 21st Season Overall DeChellis at a Glance Born Nov. 14, 1958 Hometown Monaca, Pa. High School Center College Penn State (1982) Degree B.A., Secondary Education Family Wife Kim Daughter Erin Daughter Lauren Daughter Casey Son-in-Law Andrew McKeehan Grandaughter Sophia Grandson Nathan Coaching Experience Year School, Position Penn State, graduate assistant Salem, W.Va., assistant coach Penn State, assistant coach East Tennessee St., head coach Penn State, head coach 2012-p. Navy, head coach Postseason Experience Year Tournament 1991 NCAA, second round (Penn State) 2003 NCAA, first round (ETSU) 2006 NIT, first round (Penn State) 2009 NIT, Champions (Penn State) 2011 NCAA, first round (Penn State) Ed DeChellis will enter his sixth year as the head coach of the Navy basketball program in the season and his 21st season overall as a head coach. DeChellis arrived at Navy after successful stints at East Tennessee State and Penn State, and is the 19th head basketball coach in the 109-year history of Navy basketball. In , DeChellis helped Navy post its most wins in seven years with the team s record. Navy was 9-9 in the Patriot League and finished in a four-way tie for fourth place. Navy s six-win improvement from the season ranked as the fourth-best improvement from one year to the next in program history. Navy also set a program record for most road wins in a season with 11. It was the fourth straight season that DeChellis increased Navy s overall and conference win total. Navy s defensive efforts were a key to the team s success in Navy led the Patriot League in scoring defense (64.7) and field goal percentage defense (.413). Will Kelly was named the Patriot League Defensive Player of the Year and was also named to the all-league second team. Tilman Dunbar was named to the All- Patriot League Third Team. DeChellis has won at least 19 games at three different schools (East Tennessee State, Penn State and Navy). He is the only current Patriot League head coach that has accomplished that feat. DeChellis arrival in Annapolis has corresponded with an increase of exposure for the Navy men s basketball program. Navy was invited to compete in the inaugural Pearl Harbor Invitational in Hawai i in and competed in a field with Oregon, Oklahoma and 2016 National Champion Villanova. Navy also hosted the second annual Veterans Classic during the season, with top-ranked and eventual national runner-up North Carolina, Temple and Florida joining Navy in the field. In his fourth season in Annapolis in , Navy tied for sixth place in the Patriot League standings with an 8-10 record in conference and the Mids were overall. Navy s 13 wins overall was a four-win improvement from the previous season and it was the third straight season that DeChellis increased the team s win total from the previous season. Navy also doubled its conference win total (8) from the previous season (4). DeChellis led Navy to three wins over Army, including the Army- Navy Star Game and in the Patriot League Tournament. It was the fifth time in program history that Navy went 3-0 against Army in a single season. In , Navy ranked second in the Patriot League in scoring defense, allowing 64.3 points per game and its turnover average of just 12.2 per game was the second-lowest in school history. Worth Smith was named to the All-Patriot League First Team and Kevin Alter was just one of five Division I players to be named to the Allstate NABC Good Works Team. Under the direction of DeChellis, the Navy basketball program began a new tradition in the season by hosting the inaugural Veterans Classic. Navy hosted Michigan State, while VCU faced Tennessee in the season-opening showcase in Alumni Hall. In his third season in Annapolis in , DeChellis increased Navy s overall win total for the second straight season and Navy doubled its conference win total from the previous year. A highlight of the campaign was a victory at Army in the Star Game, while the Mids also defeated Bucknell, the defending Patriot League Champion, and Lafayette, the 2013 runner-up. With defensive always being a staple of a DeChellis-coached club, Navy ranked 57th in the country in scoring defense, giving up just 65.2 points per game. At the time, Navy s 376 turnovers and 12.7 turnovers per game that season were the second-lowest in school history. Navy (9-21, 4-14) opened the season at 5-5 and went 4-0 in nonconference home games during the season. In his second season at Navy in , the Midshipmen posted an 8-23 overall record, winning five more games than it did in his first year in Annapolis while playing one of America s youngest lineups, and showing fans what the future might hold for the Midshipmen. The story of the season was taking care of the ball and defense. Navy averaged just 11.3 turnovers per game, the fewest in school history by over two turnovers per game, while ranking 17th nationally. Navy also excelled on the defensive end of the floor, where Navy allowed just 60.9 points per game, the third-lowest total in school history and the lowest for a Navy squad since The Mids ranked 42nd nationally in scoring defense, their lowest rank in over 30 years. The Midshipmen were competitive in almost every game during the season, losing 13 games by single digits or in overtime, including five by three points or less. The Midshipmen closed out the campaign with a 3-26 record. DeChellis led Penn State to a record and a fourth place finish (9-9) in the Big Ten in , including the Nittany Lions first appearance in the Big Ten Championship Game and the school s first trip to the NCAA Tournament since The Nittany Lions were led by senior guard Talor Battle, who finished second in the Big Ten in scoring (20.2 ppg) and became the first player in school history to be named team MVP all four years. Battle finished his career as Penn State s all-time leading scorer with 2,213 points, surpassing Jesse Arnelle s 56-year old Penn State record of 2,138, and finished 10th all-time in Big Ten history. DeChellis was the 2009 Big Ten Coach of the Year, just the second Penn State basketball coach to ever earn coach-of-theyear honors, as he guided a Nittany Lion team that started three sophomores to a school-record 27 wins and the program s firstever national tournament title in winning the 2009 NIT. Along the way Penn State tied a program record for regular season wins (21), posted its second-most Big Ten Conference wins (10) and second-best finish (4th) ever, recorded just the 10th 20-win season in program history, knocked off four Top 25 teams (including a road win at eventual NCAA runner-up Michigan State), set a record for home wins (17) and posted the program s most road wins (6) in the Big Ten era. Penn State s remarkable run was led by Battle, who was a firstteam All-Big Ten, NABC and USBWA all-region selection and NIT MVP Jamelle Cornley, who finished his career ranked fourth all-time in scoring and rebounding at Penn State. Neither player was a highly sought blue-chip recruit, but found remarkable success and achievement under the tutelage of DeChellis and his staff. His coaching performance in had many of his Big Ten colleagues and members of the media pointing to him as the conference s coach-of-the-year. Primed for a run to the postseason in his fifth year at the helm, DeChellis saw his leading scorer, rebounder and preseason All-Big Ten first-team pick Geary
