Cleveland State picks new men’s basketball coach
CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – Rob Summers, a former Cleveland State assistant under Dennis Gates, is returning to CSU as head coach.
Summers worked at CSU from 2020-22, then moved to Miami (OH) as associate head coach.
He rejoined Gates this past season at Missouri as associate head coach.
Summers, 7 feet tall, played in 125 games with 78 starts at Penn State (2002-04) and West Virginia (2005-07).
As a Mountaineer, Summers made 33 appearances in his first season with the program, helping WVU reach the Sweet 16. In his final campaign, he was a team captain on the team’s NIT championship squad, starting 36 games and shooting 63.3 percent from the field – a mark that stands as the second-highest single-season percentage in school history.
“Rob and I not only played together at WVU but we worked together in our first coaching job as assistants,” said Boston Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla. “From him, I learned the importance of recruiting and relationship building. Since then, I have watched him grow in teaching the game and he has worked extremely hard to become a well-rounded coach. He has great energy, passion and desire to learn. I know he will be a great addition to any staff he joins.”
He’s a native of Columbus, OH and replaces Daniyal Robinson, who moved to North Texas after this past season.

West side Cleveland mom shot in her face during carjacking and lives to tell 19 News about it
CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – On Friday, just two days into the new year, 38-year-old Cleveland mom, Tiffany Muscatell, reveals what happened that led to her being shot in her face by a stranger.
Woman shot on Cleveland’s West Side during carjacking
She spoke exclusively with 19 News senior reporter Harry Boomer late Friday afternoon.
The shooting happened around 7:30 a.m. in the 7900 block of Madison Avenue, Cleveland police said.
“What Happened? I was taking my son to my mom’s house, and a guy held me at gunpoint. Told me to get on the ground. I got on the ground. I didn’t have any money. He got into the car, told me to get my son out. It took too long. He threw me out the back and the gun went off. Then he took my son out and threw him on the ground.”
Muscatell was rushed to Metro Health Medical Center by EMS with a gunshot wound to her face.
She has more than a dozen stitches and is home to begin the healing process.
Several of her neighbors expressed outrage about what happened to her and her young son.
Here’s Howard Fetterman, who lives in the same Detroit Shoreway community as she does.
“Really, a baby with her. That’s ridiculous and insane. I think it’s disgusting for somebody to shoot a lady with a baby. They ought to catch the son-of-a-gun.”
Police found Muscatell’s car a short time after the carjacking near her home. The shooter is still on the loose.
