Pepperdine, head coach Lorenzo Romar announce addition of former Washington State coach Ken Bone

Longtime Washington coach Lorenzo Romar isn’t waiting long to assemble his new coaching staff at Pepperdine and he started by adding a former nemesis and colleague from the Pac-12 Conference.

Ex-Washington State coach Ken Bone will join Romar as an associate head coach for the Waves, the school announced Tuesday in a press release Tuesday morning. Bone wasn’t working in college basketball this season and most recently served as a special assistant to Gonzaga’s Mark Few during the 2016-17 season.

It marks the second time Romar’s hired Bone as an assistant. He spent four years as an aid to the longtime UW coach in Seattle, from 2002-05.
