"We believe that he is one of the bright young coaches who has done a great job guiding the record-setting offense over the past four years," athletic director Dave Roach said.

The previous three seasons, he was a graduate assistant with Moorhead at Connecticut. The 2006 graduate of Lock Haven also was an assistant at Allegheny College in 2007 and '08.
