The new Siena Men's Basketball Head Coach Gerry McNamara will take part in a meet-and-greet with fans at Saratoga Race Course on Friday, Aug. 30, according to a New York Racing Association release Tuesday.
Prior to the start of his first season as head coach of the Saints, Coach McNamara will visit Saratoga on Friday between 1:30 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. for photo and autograph opportunities in the backyard across from the Miller Time Fourstardave Sports Bar. Fans can also receive a complimentary sample of mac-n-cheese in addition to meeting the 2003 National Champion who is affectionately known as “GMac”.
Hired by Siena College Mar. 29, McNamara takes over the head coaching duties for the Saints following a 15-year tenure as an assistant and later associate head coach with his alma mater, Syracuse University. The former All-BIG EAST selection led the Orange to the NCAA Men's Basketball National Championship as a freshman during his playing days, which included East Regional Semifinal and Final matchups in Albany.
