Alum and former KSC assistant basketball coach Jim Ferry was named head coach at Duquesne University last month. After graduating in 1990, Ferry stuck around to serve as assistant coach from 1990–91. He then moved on as an assistant coach at Bentley College in Waltham, Mass., for seven seasons before stepping into the head coaching position at Plymouth State. From there, he spent 10 years as head coach at Long Island University Brooklyn prior to moving into the top spot at Duquesne. Read more about him on the Pittsburg Post-Gazette’s site.
Great to see how well Jim has done. As one of his “old” professors at KSC I remember him well as a student, plyer and all around wonderful person. Duquesne is fortunate to have him head their program. We’ll be hearing a lot from him in the future I am sure.
