Mike Cerasuolo (born May 20, 1971) is an American college football coach. He is the head football coach for Springfield College, a position he has held since 2016.[1] Cerasuolo was a standout offensive lineman at Springfield from 1989 to 1992, before going into coaching, starting as a graduate assistant at Ithaca. Cerasuolo would then become the offensive line and tight ends coach at Maine for a year, and then following that up with multiple offensive coordinator jobs at Cortland, Lebanon Valley, Alfred, and Mansfield spanning from 1996 until 2000. Following his lone season at Mansfield, Cerasuolo was hired as the offensive coordinator at Springfield under Mike DeLong, a position he held for 16 years, until DeLong's retirement, leading to Cerasuolo taking on the head job.[2]
