By Doug Roberson
March 20, 2014Jimmy Lallathin was hired as men’s basketball coach at Kennesaw State on Thursday.
The announcement comes less than a day after the university announced that Lewis Preston wasn’t going to remain as coach.
Lallathin took over the program after Preston took a leave of absence for personal and medical reasons on Jan. 2 that lasted throughout the season.
Lallathin led the Owls to a 3-13 record in the season’s final two months.
Lallathin joined Preston’s staff in 2011 after four years at Miami (Ohio), the last as an assistant coach in 2010-11.
He is a native of West Chester Township, Ohio.
