UCSD Men's Basketball names Clint Allard as new head coach

LA JOLLA (KUSI/FOX5) -- UCSD has named an old, but new face as head coach of their Men's basketball team. Longtime assistant and former player for the Tritons, Clint Allard looks to take the UCSD basketball program to new heights."This program is in a great position," Allard said.

"We are going to continue to attract a high level of scholar athletes and we have a good recipe for what works here, and so I am anticipating we will be able to continue our positive success." Allard takes on a team who lost 7 of their top players to either graduation and the transfer portal after making their first NCAA tournament appearance in school history..
