In the 2004-05 campaign, Massey was director of basketball operations at Owens Community College in Toledo, Ohio. In addition to his work within the basketball program, he also was part of student enrichment and athletics, an organization that assisted student-athletes in academic advising, class scheduling and tutoring. A 1995 Xavier graduate with a degree in liberal arts, Massey was a two-year letterwinner for the Musketeers. He was named the Midwestern Collegiate Conference Newcomer of the Year in 1993-94, when he averaged 12.7 points and 2.1 rebounds per game and helped guide Xavier to the third round of the NIT.
