Lorenzo Romar was officially announced as the new head coach of the Pepperdine Waves on Monday, and Sean Miller is “elated” for his first-year assistant coach.
“We didn’t know how long he would be here for,” Miller said Monday at his weekly presser. “Clearly if he had an opportunity as good as Pepperdine, it’s something that he has to take. We’re excited for him. He’s done an excellent job in the year that he’s been with us. And he’s really helped guide the ship.”
While Romar’s departure is official, he will remain with the Arizona Wildcats through the rest of the season.
