Harvard: Amaker Adds to Staff

Amaker Adds to Staff: New Harvard head coach Tommy Amaker hired Kenny Blakeney and Will Wade as assistant coaches and Kirsten Green as the program’s first director of basketball operations. Blakeney played at Duke from 1990-95, when Amaker was an assistant coach at the school, and has been an assistant at Delaware, Saint Bonaventure, La Salle, James Madison, and most recently Marshall. Wade was most recently the director of basketball operations at Clemson, where he earned his undergraduate degree and was then a graduate assistant. Green comes to the school after serving in the same capacity at Michigan, where Amaker had been the head coach for six seasons. She has followed Amaker at his head coaching stops since he first became a head coach at Seton Hall in 1997. [7/2/07]
