Jim Mancuso begins his 16th season with the Sun Devil Baseball Staff heading up the Team's Strength and Conditioning Program. Mancuso coordinates, designs and implements a comprehensive year-round, position specific program, which emphasizes the numerous components needed for success on the baseball field, including -- speed, power, agility, flexibility, and nutrition. Mancuso is known for his "'Cus Workouts" -- which test every aspect of a player's physical and mental conditioning on Saturday mornings. With his knowledge and passion for player development and methodology, Mancuso continues to evolve and challenge traditional training strategies in developing the most optimal programs for Arizona State athletes.
A former Sun Devil Baseball pitcher, Mancuso was well known by coaches, teammates and fans alike. He was hampered by injuries throughout his Sun Devil career, but was an inspiration to his teammates as a result of his hard work and dedication. He has brought that same work ethic and dedication to the Strength and Conditioning Program that the Sun Devil Baseball Team lives by today.
A `95 graduate of Arizona State, Mancuso also obtained his law degree from the Arizona State University Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law and is a practicing attorney in downtown Phoenix, in addition to his duties with the baseball team. After graduating from law school, he worked for two federal judges and at one of the most distinguished law firms in the State of Arizona. His experiences over the past five years include drafting and negotiating contracts, representing clients in employment related matters and other general commercial litigation, and participating in a variety of mediations, arbitrations, and settlement conferences.
