Head Coach John Ellenwood Resigns at Thomas More

Thomas More Athletic Director Terry Conner announced yesterday that John Ellenwood has resigned as coach of the men's basketball program. Ellenwood has made the decision to accept the same position at Ashland University in Ashland, Ohio. Ashland University is an NCAA Division II team that competes in the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.

Ellenwood inherited a 2-24 team, but compiled a 33-48 record in his three seasons at the helm. He guided the team to a 19-9 record this season and was named Presidents' Athletic Conference Coach of the Year. The Saints won their first-ever PAC regular season and tournament titles and also made their first-ever appearance in the NCAA Division III National Tournament.

Thomas More will conduct a national search to find a replacement.
