The 2025-26 season will be DiClemente's first with the Towson women's basketball staff.
Tony DiClemente comes to Towson after four seasons at Army West Point. The New York native spent his first three seasons with the Black Knights as an assistant and was elevated to Associate Head Coach prior to the 2024-25 season. DiClemente helped lead Army to 25 wins a season ago, the second most in team history. In the first round of the Women's National Invitational Tournament (WNIT), the Black Knights defeated Bryant, 59-58, to win the program's first-ever Division I postseason contest.
Army was 66-55 overall and 43-29 in conference play during DiClemente's four seasons with the team. He coached the 2023 Patriot League Rookie of the Year and recipients of ten different all-league honors while with the Black Knights.
Prior to West Point, DiClemente was an assistant coach for the Adelphi women's basketball program. The Panthers were 56-32 overall and 38-21 in league play over four seasons. In the 2019-20 season, Adelphi finished the season ranked 11th nationally in the Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) Division II Coaches Poll with a 27-3 overall record. In the WBCA East Regional rankings, the Panthers finished first.
"Coach Tony comes to Towson with winning written all over him. He adds a wealth of experience, knowledge and love for the game. Our desire to pursue excellence aligns and he is a star in our business," added Coach Harper.
