HAMILTON, N.Y. (5/24/11) – Colgate University head men's basketball coach Matt Langel has announced that Dave Klatsky, Terrell Ivory and Michael McGarvey have joined his Raiders staff as assistant coaches. All three assistants will begin immediately.

"I am excited to have these three assistant coaches join our Colgate basketball family,” said Langel. “Their competitive nature, commitment to excellence, and their experiences as both players and young coaches will help us in everything we do here at Colgate University. Above all else, however, they will be terrific role models for our student-athletes."

Klatsky spent the last four seasons as an assistant coach with the Stevens Institute of Technology men's basketball team and was involved in practice planning, player development, scouting, game preparation, and many other facets of the program.

In his four seasons Klatsky helped guide the Ducks to a record of 76-35 overall and two Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference (ECAC) Metro Championships. The Ducks earned their second ECAC Metro championship last season after finishing 22-7 overall. During his first season on the staff in 2007-08, Klatsky helped guide the Ducks to an overall record of 23-6. Stevens finished the year ranked fifth in the NCAA East Region and shared the Empire 8 regular-season title with Ithaca College. The team also went on to win its first-ever ECAC Metro championship.

Klatsky owns a Bachelor of Science degree in economics with dual concentration in finance and accounting from the University of Pennsylvania Wharton School.

While at Penn, Klatsky helped the Quakers men's basketball team earn berths to the NCAA Tournament in 1999-2000, 2001-02, and 2002-03. An Ivy League Academic Scholar-Athlete in 2000-01, Klatsky set Penn's single-season assist record that same season. He led the Ivy League in assist-to-turnover ratio three straight seasons (2000-01, 2001-02, and 2002-03). Klatsky's basketball career also includes a silver medal at the 2003 Jewish Pan Am Games in Santiago, Chile. In addition to coaching at Stevens, Klatsky has worked the last five years as an equity market maker with Knight Capital Group.

Ivory was the Director of Basketball Operations at Davidson College for the last three years and served as the video coordinator, where he broke down and studied game film, worked on scouting reports and evaluated player performance. In addition to his video expertise, he has also been actively involved in the daily operations of the basketball program and provided academic support to the student-athletes, monitored study hall and class attendance. He was also the co-director of the Davidson Summer Basketball Camp.

Ivory was a four year letterwinner at Davidson and served as team captain during the 2003-04 season. In 2002 the Wildcats won the Southern Conference championship and were sent to Albuquerque, N.M., to play fourth-seeded Ohio State in the NCAA tournament. Although a heavy underdog, the Wildcats outplayed Ohio State for 39 minutes before losing the game, 69-64.

Ivory graduated from Davidson in 2004 with a Bachelor of Arts in sociology.

McGarvey spent the last five seasons as an assistant coach with the Ursinus College men's basketball program. McGarvey worked in scouting, recruiting, film editing and player development for the Bears under the tutelage of Kevin Small, the most successful coach in Ursinus College history.

In his career as a Bear (2003-06), McGarvey was a Josten's Trophy finalist, a consensus two-time All-American, and two-time Centennial Conference Player of the Year. McGarvey finished his career fourth on the Ursinus all-time scoring chart and 13th in the Centennial Conference with 1,460 points, and is currently placed sixth on the national DIII list in career assists with a total of 754. McGarvey still holds the Centennial Conference records for career assists and career steals.

McGarvey earned a Bachelor of Science degree in business and economics from Ursinus in 2006 and is currently working on a MBA from Saint Joseph's. In addition to his position at Ursinus, McGarvey owned a small business, Duff's Steaks (2007-10), in Philadelphia, Pa.
