Kristen Mattio begins her third year at the helm of the Lady
Buffs. She guided the team to a 26-9 record in 2016-17 and
a berth in the program’s third Elite Eight in the last four years.
Mattio is 54-14 in her two years as head coach at WT.
In 2016-17, Mattio and the Lady Buffs had another standout
year both on the court and in the classroom as the team won the
Lone Star Conference Women’s Basketball Academic Champi-
onship with a team grade-point average of 3.568 and finished
19th nationally in the WBCA Academic Top 25. WT sophomore
Reagan Haynes earned the prestigious honor of winning the Elite
90 Award which goes to the top student-athlete with the best
GPA at the National Championship round. In Mattio’s two years
of coaching, the Lady Buffs have had a 3.5 or better team GPA
each season.
On the court in 2016-17, the Lady Buffs continued the
success from her first season as the team was ranked as high as
third nationally during the season and finished 15th in the final
WBCA Top 25. The Lady Buffs finished third in the LSC with a
15-5 record and a semifinal appearance in the LSC Champion-
ship. WT earned an at-large berth in the NCAA South Central
Regional where the Lady Buffs shined, winning their third region-
al in four years with a wins over Regis, Colorado State-Pueblo
and Angelo State. WT won 70-67 in overtime at top-seeded
CSU-Pueblo to advance to the region championship where the
Lady Buffs demolished league-rival Angelo State, 86-64. The
Lady Buffs then drew a tough draw in the Elite Eight, where the
season came to an end in Columbus, Ohio, against eventual
national champion Ashland (Ohio), 82-67.
Mattio guided the Lady Buffs to finish second nationally in
field goal percentage in 2016-17 at 49.0, while ranking seventh in
3-point field goal percentage (37.9), 11th in assists (542) and 15th
in free throws made (512). WT led the LSC in scoring defense
allowing just 59.3 points per game ranking 40th nationally. The
Lady Buffs were 19th nationally in rebounding margin at 7.4,
which led the LSC.
She went 28-5 overall and went 13-3 in her first season as
head coach in the Lone Star Conference. Mattio guided the Lady
Buffs the program’s third-straight Lone Star Conference regular
season title and a berth in the LSC championship game. WT
received the No. 3-seed in the South Central Regional where the
Lady Buffs defeated UC-Colorado Springs and Black Hills State,
before falling to eventual national champion Lubbock Christian in
the Sweet Sixteen. It was a matchup of the two best teams in the
region all season.
The Lady Buffs finished 10th nationally in scoring defense
in Mattio’s first season at just 55.9 points allowed per game. WT
was 15th in scoring margin at 14.8 points, fourth in steals (374),
seventh in assists (542) and 16th in free throws made (493).
Mattio graduated three seniors following her first season
coaching, including WBCA Honorable Mention All-America
honoree Michaela Neuhaus who also earned second CoSIDA
Academic All-America honors. She also earned second team
CCA All-South Central Region accolades, while being named LSC
Academic Women’s Basketball Player of the Year.
Mattio was named head coach of the Lady Buffs on May
12, 2015, after serving the past two seasons as associate heach
coach under Mark Kellogg who took the head coaching position
at Stephen F. Austin.
“I am thrilled to have Kristen as the new head coach for
Lady Buff Basketball,” McBroom said. “She has worked her entire
professional coaching career for this opportunity, and we are
fortunate that it be with WT. I have been thoroughly impressed
with her drive, preparation and commitment to excellence in
all areas. She is a terrific person and brings a great attitude to
campus each day.”
Mattio, served under Kellogg in 2013-2014 and 2014-15 as
the Lady Buffs went 62-6 with two Elite Eight appearances and
one national runner-up finish. The Lady Buffs won two Lone Star
Conference regular season and tournament titles, while winning
two South Central Region Tournament championships. She has
been the main recruiting coordinator for the Lady Buffs, as well as
coaching the guard position, academic coordinator, leader of the
summer camp program and opponent scouting.
Mattio assisted Kellogg at Northwest Missouri State for
one season and was Kellogg’s top assistant for five years at Fort
Lewis College. There, the Skyhawks went an impressive 143-20
and 93-8 in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference, capturing
three-straight RMAC regular season titles and two RMAC tourna-
ment championships in 2010-11 and 2011-12.
During her tenure at FLC, the Skyhawks made a trip to the
NCAA Division II tournament each season. The highlight, how-
ever, was the 2009-10 season which saw the Skyhawks go 35-4
and advance to the national championship game where they fell
to Emporia State.
Not only did Mattio help on the court, she played a vital role
in the academic success of the Skyhawks as the team earned
Women’s Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) Academic Top
25 Honor Roll accolades three straight seasons. The 2010-11
squad finished with the highest team GPA in NCAA Division II and
was the top-ranked team in all five levels – Division I, Division II,
Division III, NAIA and junior college of women’s basketball.
Prior to Fort Lewis, Mattio spent one season as the assistant
coach at Memphis Central High School in Memphis, Tenn.,
helping her team to a 25-8 record. While in Memphis, Mattio also
worked with and coached youth at Memphis Athletic Ministries.
Mattio first worked with Kellogg at Montana State University
from 2003-2005 where they both were assistant coaches. While
at MSU, she was responsible for the Bobcats’ academics, film
exchange, recruiting and community affairs.
Along with a stop as an assistant coach at Austin Peay State
University in Clarksville, Tenn., Mattio spent one season as an as-
sistant coach at her alma mater, Evangel University, in Springfield,
Mo., where her team reached the Elite Eight in the NAIA Division
II National Championships and posted a 29-9 record.
She played point guard and was a team captain for the
Lady Crusaders while in college and was instrumental in leading
Evangel to the NAIA Division II Sweet Sixteen. She led her team
to two NAIA tournament appearance and three Heart of America
Conference titles (2000-2003). Mattio was a two-time all-con-
ference selection and as a freshman she played at Tennessee
Temple University in Chattanooga, Tenn.
Mattio graduated from Evangel in 2003 with a bachelor’s
degree in marketing/management. She earned a master’s de-
gree in 2006 in sports and wellness leadership from Austin Peay.
