Marshall Women’s Basketball quick to name new head coach
The Marshall University Women’s basketball took very little time finding a new coach; former associate head coach Tony Kemper was promoted to fill the vacancy.
The announcement, which came just before noon, was made via Herdzone. It is five days after Matt Daniel announced his resignation leaving the position open.
Kemper came to Huntington at the same time as Daniel, where the two coached together at Central Arkansas.
This will be the first time Kemper has been named head coach at any level, although Kemper was at Marshall as an assistant coach for the development process of this team, and two of three of Marshall’s women’s basketball post season appearances.
