DAVIDSON, N.C. – Davidson head men's basketball coach Bob McKillop announced the hiring of Jeremy Henney as Director of Basketball Operations to replace Mike Craft, who recently accepted a position with Audrey Kell High School in Charlotte, N.C.
“Jeremy brings additional energy and enthusiasm to our already very hard-working staff,” commented McKillop, who is entering his 18th season at the helm of the Wildcats.
A native of Ft. Wayne, Ind., Henney joins the men's basketball staff from Lenoir-Rhyne College where he served as an assistant coach for Coach John Lentz. Prior to his most recent position, he was an Economics/Government teacher at Fred T. Foard High School in Newton, N.C. Along with his instructional duties inside the classroom, Henney was an assistant coach with the boy's basketball team from 2002-2006.
Along with taking part in the daily operations of the men's basketball office, Henney's primary responsibilities at Davidson are team travel arrangements and film exchange.
Henney is no stranger to the Davidson men's basketball program having served as a camp instructor at Bob McKillop's Boys' Basketball Camp for the last three summers. He has also worked as a counselor/coach at the Naval Academy Basketball Camp and Kids Across America Summer Camp in Branson, Mo.
“His eagerness to learn and his loyalty to our program has been in evidence during the many years he worked at our basketball camp and observed our practices. He is already a valuable addition to our staff.”
A 2002 graduate of Indiana University with a degree in secondary social studies education, Henney was recently married to the former Kala Riney of Evansville, Ind. The couple currently resides in Newton.
Davidson is coming off a 2005-06 season in which it posted a 20-11 overall mark, won the Southern Conference Tournament and played in the NCAA Tournament for the eighth time.
