Appointed by team assistant coach Lenny Williams
Mainly to give Lenny the opportunity to coach
The season suffered a losing streak. After all, it was his first year coaching. I believe that next year’s season will be better.
Also forgot that the three power forwards in this year's team are about to graduate

Oct 16 2021: new season - by JiaFeng on September 30th, 2021

After discussing with the school, we decided to part ways with Herb Caruthers
It’s not that there is a disagreement with the school, but that Herb has been teaching for many years.
I don’t have much time to spend time with my family, but thank you for coaching Walsh for 8 years.
Finally, it was decided that assistant coach Lenny Williams would take over
As for Lenny, the position is replaced by former Lenoir-Rhyne assistant coach Rob Keyes.
