The Clarkson University Athletic Department is pleased to announce the hiring of Carly Assimon as assistant coach for the Golden Knights’ Women’s Basketball program for the 2021-22 season.
Assimon, who graduated in May 2021 with a 3.5 grade-point average from Clarkson with a degree in Innovation & Entrepreneurship, was a four-year member of the Golden Knights and was named a captain back in 2018, a position she held through the remainder of her collegiate career. She missed the majority of her junior season due to injury and had a shortened senior campaign as well, but still finished her career having played 59 games and totaling 349 points, 156 rebounds, 99 assists, and 45 steals. She finished ninth all-time at Clarkson in 3-point field goals made with 83.
A three-time Liberty League All-Academic member, Assimon helped run the program’s social media accounts and was a key part of the grass root campaign for fundraising for the program for the annual Let’s CU Give initiative.
