High School and College
Masters grew up on Long Island and graduated from The Wheatley School of Old Westbury, New York in 1985. In 1991, the school inducted Masters into its Athletic Hall of Fame for his high school soccer, basketball and track and field exploits. Masters then attended Williams College, a small NCAA Division III liberal arts college in Williamstown, Massachusetts. He chose Williams for its academic-athletic balance, and also because he wanted to play both soccer and basketball. At Williams, he played on the men’s soccer team from 1985 to 1988. In 1987 and 1988 he was selected as a first team All American. He finished his four years at Williams with a school record 46 goals, a record broken in 1996 by Brad Murray. Masters also served as captain of both the soccer and basketball teams.
