CHAMPAIGN — Kevin Hambly added to his coaching staff twice already this February, hiring former Dartmouth head coach Erin Lindsey as an assistant and luring Jenni Bolduc away from Ball State as Illinois’ director of operations. Hambly is active again in the assistant coach market after the recent resignation of Owen Monroy.
Monroy spent the 2015 season at Illinois as the replacement for Scott Leserman, who also spent just one season with the Illini in 2014. Former assistant Hillary Haen Tennant and former director of operations Johannah Bangert, who both played for Hambly, stepped away for personal reasons following the 2015 season.
