Lafayette, LA (Sports Network) - Louisiana-Lafayette hired Garry Brodhead as
its new women's basketball coach on Monday.
Brodhead, who graduated from the university in 1980 with a degree in business
administration, spent the last five seasons at McNeese State, most recently as
associate head coach.
"As we navigated through the search process and reviewed the qualities that we
were looking for, Coach Brodhead kept rising to the top," said athletic
director Scott Farmer. "His understanding of the game, history in coaching and
passion for the University make him a tremendous fit for the position."
Brodhead won a Louisiana state high school girls' title with Teurlings
Catholic early in his 16-year coaching career.
"I appreciate the opportunity that Scott Farmer and the University is giving
me," Brodhead said. "I am very confident about what can happen here at UL and
within the women's basketball program."
Brodhead is replacing Errol Rogers, who resigned last month after five
seasons.
