Cal's Cuonzo Martin resigns to look at 'other opportunities'

BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) Cuonzo Martin has been named the new coach at Missouri hours after stepping down at California.

Missouri made the announcement late Wednesday afternoon and scheduled a ''campus celebration'' for Monday.

Cal announced Martin's resignation a day after the short-handed Golden Bears' season ended in the first round of the NIT with a loss to Cal State Bakersfield. Martin completed his third year as head coach in Berkeley.

He will take over for the fired Kim Anderson at Missouri.
