Currently the Head Coach of the 2011 Inter-Ac Champions - the first outright title in 30 years. He has amassed 105 wins in just 5 seasons at Malvern Prep and has made the Friars one of the better programs in the Philadelphia area.

He was recently honored and recognized by The Philadelphia Inquirer AND The Philadelphia Daily News as the 2011 High School Boys Basketball Coach of the Year for leading the Friars to 24 wins and a second consecutive year of finishing in the city's Top 10.

Jim Rullo played both high school and college basketball in the Philadelphia area. A Markward Award winner as Inter-Ac League MVP while attending Malvern Prep, he then went to Drexel University to play both baseball and basketball at the NCAA Division I level.

While at Drexel University, 

• Walk-on Member as a freshman + sophomore
• Most Improved Player as a sophomore
• Defensive Player of Year as a junior + senior
• Team Captain as senior on a team that went 25-5 and earned a berth in the NCAA Tournament

"Throughout my college and professional career, Jim Rullo was one of my best teammates. He was such a tough, smart and dependable player that placed his individual accomplishment on hold for the success of our team at Drexel University. These same attributes as well as his ability to relate to younger players have made him a great coach."
