Mullins Memorial Center Charleston Classic champions NCAA tournament round of 64 The 2013–14 Massachusetts Minutemen basketball team represented the University of Massachusetts Amherst during the 2013–14 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Minutemen, led by sixth year head coach Derek Kellogg, played their home games at the William D. Mullins Memorial Center and were members of the Atlantic 10 Conference. Early in the season UMass won the Charleston Classic tournament. Following this tournament victory and beginning the season 6–0, the Minutemen would be ranked #24 in the AP Poll. This marked the first time since 1998 that UMass would be ranked in the AP Top 25. They finished the regular season 23–7, 10–6 in A-10 play to finish in a tie for fifth place. The Minutemen were eliminated in the A-10 tournament quarterfinals. They earned an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament, the school's first NCAA bid in 16 years. They lost in the first round of the NCAA Tournament to Tennessee to finish the season 24–9. In 2014, shortly after the end of the season, sophomore starting guard Derrick Gordon came out as gay, making him the first Division I men's basketball player to do so while still playing in college.https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/10754694/derrick-gordon-umass-basketball-player-becomes-first-openly-gay-ncaa-division-player UMass' Derrick Gordon says he's gay Kate Fagan ESPN.com April 9, 2014 April 9, 2014 Roster NumberNamePositionHeightWeightYearHometown 0 Demetrius Dyson Guard 6–5 215 Freshman Covington, Tennessee 1 Maxie Esho Forward 6–8 205 RS Junior Upper Marlboro, Maryland 2 Derrick Gordon Guard 6–3 190 RS Sophomore Plainfield, New Jersey 3 Chaz Williams Guard 5–9 175 RS Senior Brooklyn, New York 4 Jabarie Hinds Guard 5–11 185 Junior Mount Vernon, New York 5 Clyde Santee Guard 6–7 180 Freshman Houston, Texas 11 Tyler Bergantino Forward/Center 6–9 245 Sophomore Spring Hill, Florida 12 Trey Davis Guard 6–0 180 Sophomore DeSoto, Texas 13 Zach Coleman Forward 6–7 210 Freshman Dallas, Texas 22 Sampson Carter Forward 6–8 220 RS Senior Baton Rouge, Louisiana 24 Seth Berger Forward 6–7 210 Freshman Seattle, Washington 25 Cady Lalanne Center 6–10 250 Junior Orlando, Florida 34 Raphiael Putney Forward 6–9 185 RS Senior Woodbridge, Virginia Schedule http://www.umassathletics.com/sports/m-baskbl/sched/umas-m-baskbl-sched.html University of Massachusetts Official Athletic Site - Men's Basketball September 6, 2013 October 6, 2013 https://web.archive.org/web/20131006063919/http://www.umassathletics.com/sports/m-baskbl/sched/umas-m-baskbl-sched.html dead 2013-14 NCAA Division I men's basketball rankings 2013 yes yes |- !colspan=9 style="background:#881c1c;
