Coaching Rumors:

Kevin McGeehan
Could Longwood look local for our next coach?

Longwood is thought to be in the process of on-campus interviews for the vacant head coaching job this week. One name that keeps popping up is University of Richmond’s Kevin McGeehan.

McGeehan’s name being in the mix at Longwood should not come as a surprise. Obviously there is the proximity and success of the Richmond program that will entice local mid-majors, but there is also another connection. Keith Gill, the Spider’s Athletic Director, is good friends with Troy Austin. Gill is also a graduate of Duke and was the AD at American prior to this year.

McGeehan was the assistant coach under Chris Mooney at Beaver College from 1998 to 2000. When Mooney left, McGeehan took over as the head coach of the Division III program from 2000 to 2002, he then served as a high school head coach in Pennsylvania after that. In 2004 he rejoined Mooney’s bench when he took the head job at Air Force. McGeehan
