Santa Clara, CA - Santa Clara University Friday named Kerry Keating head men's basketball coach.
Keating was an assistant for four seasons at UCLA, helping the Bruins to two straight Final Four appearances over the last two seasons.
'We are absolutely thrilled to be able to announce Kerry Keating as our head basketball coach,' Santa Clara athletics director Dan Coonan said. 'He has earned a tremendous reputation for himself within the industry as a phenomenal recruiter, a tireless worker and a person of solid character.'
Keating, who replaces Dick Davey to become the 14th head coach in the 100-year history of Broncos basketball, spent two seasons at Tennessee (2001-03) under Buzz Peterson, under whom he also coached at Tulsa in 2000-01.
