317.955.6123
 
Cassie Mackell is entering her fourth season as head coach at Marian University.
 
In just three seasons at the helm of the women's tennis program, Mackell has made a significant impact. Over her first three years, Mackell has amassed a record of 40-23 and finished the 2010-11 season with a 15-7 overall record and a 6-2 mark in the MCC. In 2009-10, Mackell was named MCC Coach of the Year, coached the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Midwest Regional champion, and had two of her starters named All-Conference for the first time in seven years. Her team finished 13-7 and 6-2 in the MCC in 2009-10.
 
Mackell followed the Knights' first-ever trip to the NAIA Regional tournament in 2007-08 with a 12-9 mark in her first season. She was without the services of two of the most successful players in school history as they had graduated before her rookie campaign, but she was able to steer the Knights to a winning season in her first year.
 
A four-year player at Milligan College in Tennessee, Mackell was named the Appalachian Athletic Conference Sportswoman of the Year as a senior, which is one of the conference's highest honors. In her four years, she went 48-18 at No. 1 singles and was named NAIA Region XII Player of the Year as a junior. She was AAC runner-up at No. 1 singles in 2003 and 2004 and was AAC champion at No. 1 doubles in 2003 and 2005. She was also named the 2006 NAIA ITA/Arthur Ashe Leader and Sportsmanship Award winner in 2006.
 
On October 28, 2011, Mackell was honored by her alma mater when she was inducted into the Milligan College Athletics Hall of Fame for her contributions to the women's tennis program and the department of athletics.
 
In addition to her duties as head women's tennis coach, Mackell serves the Department of Athletics as administrative assistant, where she oversees day-to-day operations, and is also entering her first season as assistant men's tennis coach. She recently got married to head men's tennis coach Steve Mackell and resides in Greenfield, Indiana.

Steve Mackell is entering his second season as the head men's tennis coach at Marian University. He is the seventh head coach in Knights' men's tennis history.
 
In his first season, Mackell guided the team to a 5-10 overall record and a 3-5 mark in the MCC. The Knights placed sixth in the MCC, and Mackell looks to guide them back to the top of the conference.
 
Mackell will continue in his current job while he is MU men's tennis head coach. Prior to taking the head coaching job, he spent three years as the Indianapolis territory manager for John Conti Gourmet Coffee Company based in Louisville, Kentucky.
 
He has served as assistant coach for the Marian University women's tennis team for the past three years and has helped guide them to sustained success each season. He assisted with a team that has a record of 40-23 over the last three seasons and finished third in the Mid-Central College Conference last season.
 
Mackell was a four-year letter winner at Georgetown College in Kentucky from 2001-2005. During his time at Georgetown, he was named the team's Most Valuable Player in 2004-05 and was also named team captain during his senior year. He earned All-Mid-South Conference honors during his senior campaign and picked up a Mid-South Conference Player of the Week award on March 20, 2005.
   
Mackell recently married the former Cassie Lomison, head women's tennis coach at Marian University, and the couple resides in Greenfield, Indiana.
