Northeastern University Athletics

Associate head coach Patrick Mason is entering his fifth season on Neil McPhee’s staff and brings several seasons of coaching experience to the Huskies. The former NU catcher (1994-97) will work primarily with NU’s catchers and infielders along with serving as the pitching coach. Mason served as assistant coach at Framingham State in 2004 after four years with Boston College. For the summers of 2003-’06, he was a coach with the Harwich Mariners of the Cape Cod League.

Mason has a tremendous history of developing catching prospects, and in his eight years of coaching, he has served as a mentor for 10 catchers who were selected in the MLB Draft and who are currently playing baseball professionally, including Huskies Matt Morizio and Dan Milano in his first two seasons at Northeastern.

While playing at Northeastern, the Franklin, Mass., native was captain in 1996 and ’97, and helped NU to America East championships in 1994 and 1997. In his four years, he found his way into the record books on both sides of the ball, as his 19 career home runs rank high in Husky history and, defensively, he holds the NU record for errorless chances in a season, with 242 (1997).

Mason resides in Boston.
