Pepperdine expected to hire Lorenzo Romar as next head coach, per report

Lorenzo Romar’s stay in Tucson will be a short one.

The Arizona Wildcats assistant coach is expected to be named the new head coach of the Pepperdine Waves, according to Jon Rothstein of FanRag Sports.

Rothstein reports that an official announcement will likely be made early this week, and that Romar is expected to remain with the Wildcats through the NCAA Tournament.

Romar was hired by Sean Miller and Arizona last April after he was fired at Washington after being at the helm in Seattle for 15 seasons.
