Newman has transformed the Matadors into a winning program, helping CSUN achieve numerous records in his first two seasons. CSUN has won 41 games over the past two seasons, the most over a two-year stretch in over two decades. A total of five Matadors have earned All-Big West honors in his tenure with two collecting First-Team accolades. Newman led CSUN to an impressive 22-11 record in 2024-25, tying the school record for overall wins while the Matadors established a new record for conference wins (14), tied the school mark for road wins (10) and matched the D-1 record for wins in a row (7). The 22 wins were the most for the program since the 2000-01 season and marked just the fourth time CSUN had reached 20 wins as a Division I program.
