Hofstra names Cassara new hoops coach
NCAA Basketball Betting Lines
05/05/2010 -
Hempstead, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Hofstra University named Mo Cassara head
coach of the men's basketball team on Wednesday, just two days after Tim Welsh
resigned following his DWI arrest.
Cassara spent the last four years as an assistant at Boston College, where he
was heavily involved with recruiting, scouting, off-season workouts and
scheduling.
"We have had the opportunity to see Mo's dynamic leadership, energy and
enthusiasm in action," said Hofstra president Stuart Rabinowitz. "His
experience with college basketball, his passion for the game, and his desire
to work with student-athletes in all facets of their development, will serve
our basketball team well and help take our program to the next level of
excellence."
Prior to joining Boston College, Cassara served as the head coach at Clark
University, a Division III program, for two years (2004-06). He also had a
one-year stint as an assistant at Dayton in 2003-04.
Cassara agreed to a multi-year contract to replace Welsh, who was reportedly
arrested on the morning of April 30.
According to the New York Daily News, the 49-year-old Welsh was found asleep
at the wheel at a green light. He registered a .18 on a breath test, more
than twice the legal limit, and was charged with driving while intoxicated. He
later pleaded not guilty at his arraignment.
Welsh had been hired on March 31 to succeed Tom Pecora.
