Citing health concerns, Washington State women’s basketball coach June Daugherty is taking an indefinite medical leave of absence, the school announced Wednesday.
Daugherty’s husband, associate head coach Mike Daugherty, will serve as acting coach until she returns.
“The medical procedure I had a few weeks ago was successful, but I need some additional time to rest and heal,” June Daugherty said in a statement.
“I have great confidence that my staff will continue to coach the Cougs to their best play yet, I believe in this team and I am excited to see them continue to have success in Pac-12 Conference play.
