UMC to Begin Search for New Head Men's Basketball Coach



CROOKSTON, Minn. (March 17, 2013) – The University of Minnesota Crookston announced today that Head Men’s Basketball Coach Jeff Oseth’s contract will not be renewed.

“We sincerely appreciate the commitment, effort, and loyalty Coach Oseth has brought to the Golden Eagle men’s basketball program as well as to the entire campus during his tenure. That said, we believe it’s time to take the program in a new direction,” said Stephanie Helgeson, director of athletics. Helgeson indicated that the search for a new head men’s basketball coach will begin immediately.

Helgeson added, “Jeff certainly helped us during the transition to membership in the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference. We wish him only the very best.”

Oseth has served as the head men’s basketball coach for the Crookston campus since 2002, when he was selected—first as interim head coach and then as head coach. He served several seasons prior to that as an assistant coach and was a member of the U of M Crookston men’s basketball team from 1990-1992.
