New Bobcat in town

Sometimes, you can return home after all. Brandon University went to it's alumni ranks once again to hire a new men's basketball coach.

Gil Cheung, a former BU player and assistant coach, was hired to replace another BU alumnus, Keith Vassell, today.

Last season, Cheung was head coach of the men's basketball program at Douglas College in New Westminster, B.C.

BU officials, who have had to strike a hiring committee for this post frequently since former coach Jerry Hemmings last patrolled the sideline in 2003, said in a press release they hope Cheung represents a long-term solution for the program.
