Gallo, in his second season in Hanover, came to Dartmouth after serving last year as the assistant director of Hoop Group Elite in Neptune, N.J. He was responsible for recruiting over 2,500 players for summer camps and more than 1,500 players for fall and spring clinics between Boston and Virginia. In this capacity, Gallo was able to establish and maintain relationships with some of the top high school and AAU coaches on the East Coast.

Prior to working with The Hoop Group, Gallo was a full-time assistant coach at his alma mater, Merrimack College in North Andover, Mass., for four years. His biggest responsibility came as the recruiting coordinator, and he came through by bringing in the Northeast 10 Conference Rookie of the Year in consecutive years (2006 and ’07), not to mention a member of the All-Rookie team in 2008. All three of those players went on to be all-conference performers, including one who was a two-time All-American and a Bob Cousy Award finalist. During Gallo’s final two seasons at Merrimack, the Warriors went 39-20 and made consecutive trips to the Division II NCAA Tournament.

Gallo graduated from Merrimack in 2004.
