Fairfield University Head Coach Joe Frager announced that Laura Scinto has been promoted to Associate Head Coach of the women’s basketball program.

Scinto begins her sixth season as a member of the women’s basketball coaching staff and her 17th alongside Frager. She has helped the Stags to a 101-58 overall record during her time at Fairfield and to the MAAC Championship Final in two of the last three seasons.

Prior to Fairfield, she spent nine years as an assistant at Southern Connecticut State University where she was an integral part of the 2007 National Title, as well as the team’s four NCAA Tournament appearances. For the two years prior to making the move with Frager to SCSU, Scinto was his assistant at Seymour High School. In that capacity she helped lead the Wildcat’s to back-to-back state titles and played a role in the 52-game winning streak. She also spent time coaching at Shelton High School along with other local AAU programs.
