Matt Casale enters his second season as a Sports Performance Coach in 2020-21, directing the physical development of the Aggie soccer, men’s golf and women’s tennis squads.
In his first season in Aggieland, his squads experienced success across the board.

The men’s golf squad advanced to the SEC Tournament semifinal and finished 6th in NCAA Regional action after registering two tournament wins and a runner-up finish in regular-season play. The Texas A&M women’s tennis squad finished as SEC Tournament runner-up and advanced to the NCAA Tournament Sweet 16.
It marks Casale’s second stint in Bryan-College Station where he earned his master’s degree in kinesiology in 2016.

Casale returned to Aggieland after two years at Fresno State where he oversaw the Olympic Sports Performance Department as well as designing and implementing the sport performance programs for women’s basketball and softball. He spent his first year, 2018-19, as an assistant strength and condition coach for the Bulldogs, and the second year, 2019-20, he served as director of sports performance.
Before arriving at Fresno State, Casale spent two years at Brigham Young University where he led the strength and conditioning programs for track & field sprints and jumps, women’s soccer, men’s and women’s tennis and men’s and women’s swim teams.
Prior to BYU, Casale completed an internship with the United States Ski and Snowboard team in Park City, Utah. He assisted the strength and conditioning programs for the U.S. Mogul and Aerial National Teams in collaboration with the USSA High Performance Staff at the Center of Excellence. He also developed and led the strength and conditioning programs for on-snow training camps in Canada and Australia for the U.S. Mogul National Team.
Casale received his bachelor’s degree in health and exercise science at Syracuse University in 2014. For the Orange, he assisted the strength and conditioning programs for men’s and women’s soccer, men’s and women’s rowing, women’s tennis, field hockey, softball, and the spirit program.
