Coach Malouf
Janet Malouf completed
her
15th season as head women’s basketball coach at Kutztown University.
Malouf's Golden Bears
went 20-8 overall and 10-4 in the Pennsylvania State Athletic
Conference East in 2008-09. The Golden Bears made it back to the PSAC playoffs after a two-year hiatus. Before that, KU had a string
of 11 consecutive postseason appearances from 1996-2006.
KU was the No. 3 seed in the PSAC East
quarterfinals, losing in the first round to Millersville 75-64.
During her 15 seasons at Kutztown, Malouf has led
the Golden Bears to more wins (231) and PSAC East victories (106)
than any previous coach. She was named the PSAC East Coach of the
Year in 2008-09 for the third time in her career, while 13 of her players have earned a total
of 26 All-PSAC East Awards. She has coached one PSAC Player of
the Year and two PSAC Rookies of the Year. She holds a 231-178
overall record.
Malouf has had the three winningest seasons in
school history. In 1999-2000, the Golden Bears set a school record
with 21 victories. During that season, Malouf became Kutztown’s
first women’s basketball coach to win 100 career games. In 1995-96,
Malouf’s squad won a then-school-record 20 games, including a 9-3
mark in the PSAC East and a share of the regular season division
title. The Golden Bears advanced to the NCAA Regional Playoffs for
the first time in school history. The 2008-09 team tied the 20 win
mark and set the PSAC East record for wins in a season with 10.
During the 1997-98, 1998-99 and 2005-06 seasons,
KU advanced to the semifinals of the PSAC Playoffs for just the
second, third and fourth times in school history, respectively.
Prior to Kutztown, Malouf was the assistant
women’s basketball coach at Lafayette College for four seasons. The
Leopards had winning campaigns three of the four seasons during her
tenure. Malouf received her master’s degree in sports management
from Purdue University in 1990, where she served as a volunteer
basketball assistant.
In addition to her Division I coaching
experience, Malouf also played at Division I powerhouse Rutgers
University, where she received her bachelor’s degree in sports
management. She was a four-year starter under head coach Theresa
Grentz, who also was the coach of the 1992 U.S. Olympic women’s
basketball team. Malouf helped the Scarlet Knights to the NCAA
tournament four straight years, finishing in the Elite Eight in 1986
and 1987 and in the Sweet 16 in 1988. She held the university’s
assist record for men and women (718 career, 209 season) until 2001. In 2003, she was inducted into the Rutgers Women’s Basketball Hall
of Fame.
