HEAD COACH MICHAEL WHITLING Michael Whitling was named the next head coach of the Mansfield University women’s basketball program at a press conference in July of 2016. Whitling joined the Mountaineers after serving as an assistant coach with Gannon University women’s basketball from 2013 to 2016 under head coach Jim Brunelli. During that time, the Golden Knights made a pair of NCAA Tournament appearances (2014 & 2015) and saw five players hit the 1,000
point scoring milestone. Gannon compiled a three-year record of 66-23 and made numerous appearances in the national rankings, sitting as high as No. 2 in the country during the 2013-14 season. Prior to Gannon, Whitling served as Brunelli’s assistant at Anderson University (S.C.) for three seasons. Whitling helped Anderson to South Atlantic Conference (SAC) regular season and tournament titles during the 2012-13 season along with an NCAA Tournament berth. The Trojans also knocked off Division I Clemson 7265 earlier that season. Whitling got his start in coaching as a Graduate Assistant for Clarion University women’s basketball under four-time PSAC West Coach
of the Year Margaret “Gie” Parsons from 2005-08 before serving as the head coach of the Du Bois High School junior varsity boys’ basketball team for two seasons. The Knox, Pa. native earned a bachelor’s degree in Finance from Clarion in 2004 before receiving his master’s degree in Education in 2008. While at Clarion, he was a three-year letter winner for the Golden Eagles’ baseball team. Whitling earned All-PSAC Western Division second-team utility honors, recording the fifth-highest single-season batting average (.357) in school history as a senior.

HEAD COACH MICHAEL WHITLING Michael Whitling was named the next head coach of the Mansfield University women’s basketball program at a press conference in July of 2016. Whitling joined the Mountaineers after serving as an assistant coach with Gannon University women’s basketball from 2013 to 2016 under head coach Jim Brunelli. During that time, the Golden Knights made a pair of NCAA Tournament appearances (2014 & 2015) and saw five players hit the 1,000
point scoring milestone. Gannon compiled a three-year record of 66-23 and made numerous appearances in the national rankings, sitting as high as No. 2 in the country during the 2013-14 season. Prior to Gannon, Whitling served as Brunelli’s assistant at Anderson University (S.C.) for three seasons. Whitling helped Anderson to South Atlantic Conference (SAC) regular season and tournament titles during the 2012-13 season along with an NCAA Tournament berth. The Trojans also knocked off Division I Clemson 7265 earlier that season. Whitling got his start in coaching as a Graduate Assistant for Clarion University women’s basketball under four-time PSAC West Coach
of the Year Margaret “Gie” Parsons from 2005-08 before serving as the head coach of the Du Bois High School junior varsity boys’ basketball team for two seasons. The Knox, Pa. native earned a bachelor’s degree in Finance from Clarion in 2004 before receiving his master’s degree in Education in 2008. While at Clarion, he was a three-year letter winner for the Golden Eagles’ baseball team. Whitling earned All-PSAC Western Division second-team utility honors, recording the fifth-highest single-season batting average (.357) in school history as a senior.
