BOONE, N.C. – Season tickets for the 2019-20 Appalachian State men's and women's basketball season are on sale.
The Mountaineer men recently announced the hiring of Dustin Kerns as the 22nd head coach in program history. A native of Kingsport, Tenn., Kerns inherited a Presbyterian program that had yet to achieve a winning record in 12 seasons at the Division I level and was coming off a five-win campaign in 2016-17. He immediately led the Blue Hose to a six-win improvement in his first year before breaking through in 2018-19. This season, Kerns guided the Blue Hose to their first winning record (20-16) and first postseason appearance as a Division I program.
