Brett Masi enters his third season as an assistant coach to head coach Peter Smith after spending the 2005 season as a volunteer assistant to the USC men's tennis program.

In 2007, Masi was honored as the ITA West Region Assistant Coach of the Year following the Trojans' run to an 11-0 start and eventual 23-3 overall record with its trip to the NCAA Quarterfinals.

This marks his sixth season in collegiate tennis after spending his first two years as an assistant coach to the men's and women's programs at Santa Clara. Masi shared the responsibilities of individual workouts, strength and conditioning, recruiting and summer camp instruction for both the Bronco men's and women's teams in 2003 and 2004.

Masi was a four-year letterwinner at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, where he remains one of the program's all-time winningest players. He completed his career with a 60-29 singles record, playing among the top three singles positions since his freshman campaign. He earned his highest career singles ranking at No. 38 in 2000 and was named to the All-Big West Conference first team as a senior.

In 2001, he earned his bachelor's degree in recreation administration from Cal Poly and earned his master's degree from Azusa Pacific in 2002.

In addition to coaching, Masi works as an instructor for Peter Smith at The Long Beach Tennis Academy and the Peter Smith Tennis Camps during the summer. He also spends time coaching and developing junior tennis players throughout Southern California.

Masi prepped at Riverside Poly High School, where he was a four-time Ivy League champion in both singles and doubles.

Masi was born Nov. 2, 1978 in Riverside, Calif. He and his wife, Desiree, have a new baby boy, Jaxson.
