Stephen Masiello (born September 2, 1977) is an American college basketball coach and a former player. He is the current head coach at Manhattan College.

Masiello, from White Plains, New York, played collegiately as a walk-on at the University of Kentucky for coaches Rick Pitino and Tubby Smith from 1996 to 2000. Though he played little, he was a member of two Final Four teams, including the 1997–98 Wildcats team that won the national championship.

Following the close of his college career, Masiello got his first coaching job as an administrative assistant at Tulane during the 2000–01 season. Following a stint as an assistant at Manhattan, he got an opportunity to rejoin his old coach Pitino at Louisville. Masiello served on Pitino's staff for six years, gaining a reputation as a top assistant coach and strong recruiter.

On April 11, 2011, Steve Masiello was named head coach at Manhattan College.[1]
