Tom Callan is in his second season as the director of basketball operations for American University women's basketball team. Before to his hiring at AU in September 2008, Callan was directly involved in women's basketball, serving as team manager for the University of Colorado and USA Basketball.
From 2004-06, Callan assisted in all responsibilities pertaining to Colorado's team operations, including attendance, game and practice preparation and summer camps. Additionally, in 2005, Callan was team manager for the U.S. women's basketball team in the World University Games. He also spent time over the past years as the manager for the U-19 FIBA World Championship in Bratislava, Slovakia and the FIBA Women's World League in Yekaterinburg, Russia. He was responsible for team equipment, practice logistics and video scouting, and assisted with player relations.
A 2007 graduate from Colorado with degrees in both international affairs and economics, Callan spent seven months as an investment analyst intern at Stategies LLC.
"Tom has strong organizational skills and extensive experience
through his time spent at Colorado and with USA Basketball that
give me great confidence that he will excel at running the
operations of our program," said AU Head Coach Matt Corkery at the
time of Callan's hire. "He grew up around basketball and already
has a relationship with assistant coach LaTonya Watson, from their
time at Colorado, so I am excited about his addition to the staff."
