Submitted by Raymond Meadows
Doug Cardoni, who was named head varsity girls basketball coach at Campolindo High School in April, played college basketball for Clemson University in Clemson, South Carolina and Erskine College, in Due West, South Carolina. After college, while working on Wall Street for two decades, Cardoni played and coached in a variety of high-level adult basketball leagues in New York City. Since moving to Lafayette in 2015, Cardoni has coached youth basketball teams in recreational leagues, high school programs and coached and played in the US Masters National Championships in Coral Springs, Florida (3-time 40-and-over Champions).
Cardoni was co-head coach of the Miramonte JV girls' team for three years, as well as being a varsity assistant at Miramonte during that time. For the past three years, he has been an assistant varsity coach at Carondelet High School, where he helped lead the team to the 2022 NorCal Open Division championship game.
When asked about taking over the Campolindo G. Basketball program, he stated, "Campolindo is a high-level academic school as well as one that supports its sports programs wholeheartedly, and I'm excited to be able to work with such impressive student-athletes and a school with such a strong academic and athletic history. I'd like to thank Kelly Sopak and all of my co-coaches along the way who have helped build my coaching base and also give a special mention to Clay Kallam for his advice on girls' basketball throughout the years. I really just can't wait to get to work."
