Coach Pfanders

Coach Pfanders is in his fifth season on the Alvernia coaching staff. He had a very successful playing career at Bishop Kenrick High School out of the very tough Philadelphia Catholic League where he played the post for Coach Buddy Gardler and played alongside current Connecticut Coach Geno Auriemma. He also lettered in basketball at Lycoming College. Paul and his wife Cathy live in Gilbertsville and have two daughters, Laura and Elise.

Coach Calabria on Paul Pfanders:

"Coach Pfanders is a tremendous post player teacher. He has a great way of teaching the nuances of the low post game and our players really enjoy working with him and learning from him. In addition, Paul has a lot of AAU experience as well as a lot of contacts in the Philadelphia Catholic League that will serve us well on the recruiting trails."
