Chris Carideo is preparing for his 15th season as the head men's basketball coach at Division III Widener University. He has won 213 games as the head coach of the Pride. But his coaching record only tells part of the story of what he has meant to Widener basketball as Carideo was also one of the greatest players in program history, scoring more than 2,000 points.
In Episode #58 of "1-on-1 with Matt Leon," Matt catches up with Carideo over Zoom to talk about his career in coaching, what the basketball scene was like down the Jersey Shore growing up, and what Widener means to him.
