Jason Sasser, a former basketball star at Kimball and Texas Tech who also played briefly in the NBA, has been named Red Oak's boys basketball coach.
Sasser, who played two games for the Mavericks during the 1996-97 season, was an assistant coach at Cedar Hill last year.
"We are very excited to have Coach Sasser heading up the basketball program at ROISD," Red Oak ISD athletic director Pat Brady said in a news release. "He brings a wealth of basketball knowledge and experience and will continue to help build character in our kids."
"I believe that Red Oak High School basketball is destined for greatness," Sasser said in the news release.
