For former Amityville High School boys basketball coach Jack Agostino, life begins at 55.
“I’m a hungry coach,” said Agostino, who in July accepted a position as the associate coach at Division I North Carolina A&T, where one of his former Amityville players, Jay Joyner, is the head coach. “And that’s a scary quality for me getting into the business again. I’ve watched so much basketball the last three years. I wasn’t coaching but I was still around basketball. I missed coaching, and Jay knew it and he knew I wasn’t coaching at Amityville.”
Agostino resigned as Amityville basketball coach after the 2013-14 season and retired from teaching last year. He had won 473 games, including four consecutive state titles, nine Long Island championships, 11 Suffolk crowns and two state Federation championships. But coaching was still in his blood.
