Raheem Mapp was promoted to Director of Men's Basketball Operations in July 2015, after serving the previous five years as the Administrative/Video Coordinator for the program.
Mapp, who oversees all operational aspects of the nation's fifth winningest men's basketball program, earned both his bachelor's (2009) and master's (2013) degrees in sport and recreation management from Temple.
In his prior role, Mapp coordinated all video functions, including breaking down game film and overseeing the film exchange program, while assisting in the program's day-to-day operations.
While attending Temple as an undergraduate student, Mapp served three seasons (2006-09) as a manager of the men's basketball team before working in the office during the 2009-10 season to help fill the void left by the departure of the assistant director of men's basketball operations.
A Philadelphia native, Mapp worked with the basketball team at his alma mater, Central High ('05), helping Coach Haviland Harper during his team's run to the 2005 Public League Championship. While at Central High, he also served as a bat boy for the Philadelphia Phillies for three years (2003-05) and did some video work for the club in 2007.
Mapp and his wife, Yanira, and daughter Yarah, reside in Philadelphia.
