Matt Hahn, a former assistant coach at La Salle University of the Atlantic-10, begins his second season on the Catamount coaching staff in 2006-07. He joined Head Coach Mike Lonergan's staff in May of 2005.

A 2000 graduate of the University of Maryland, Hahn was on his father Billy's staff at La Salle for three seasons from 2001-04 serving as an assistant coach and director of basketball operations. At La Salle Hahn coached Rasual Butler of the NBA's New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets and recruited two-time Atlantic-10 player of the year Steven Smith. His duties included game and practice preparation, recruiting, supervising academics, coordinating film exchange, and conducting individual workouts.

At Vermont, Hahn also is heavily involved in many aspects of the basketball program including recruiting, opponent scouting, individual skill development, and scheduling. He also works closely with the Catamount guards and has played an instrumental role in the development of America East Rookie of the Year Mike Trimboli.

Hahn, a native of Columbia, Md., was a reserve guard for the Maryland Terrapins under legendary coach Gary Williams. In each of his four seasons Maryland reached the NCAA tournament including advancing to the regional semi-finals ("Sweet Sixteen") in 1998 and 1999. A member of the ACC Academic Honor Roll, he was the team captain as a senior and his teammates included NBA regulars Steve Blake, Juan Dixon, and Steve Francis.

At the beginning of his coaching career Hahn worked basketball camps across the country including the prestigious Eastern Invitational. The experience has greatly contributed to his extensive recruiting connections in Baltimore, DC, Philadelphia, New Jersey, and New England.
