Early life
[edit]Maugeri was born in Mahopac, New York, and grew up in Daytona Beach, Florida, when he moved when he was eight years old.[1] He played at quarterback and defensive back in high school.[1]
College career
[edit]Maugeri first played college football for one season for the Marist Red Foxes as a defensive back.[1] He then transferred to Western Connecticut State University to play for the Colonials, but was injured in his junior year and had difficulty playing afterward.[1] He graduated from Western Connecticut in 2004.[2]
Coaching career
[edit]Lindenwood
[edit]After coaching and teaching for a couple of years in high school, Maugeri eventually joined the coaching staff of the Lindenwood Lions as a graduate assistant in 2008.[1][2] He earned a full-time coaching position in 2009 where he coached the secondary and served as the team's special teams coordinator.[2] He also spent time as the Lions' recruiting coordinator.[2]
Saskatchewan Roughriders
