Another coaching change recently took place for the University of Virginia’s College at Wise’s women’s basketball program.
Abby Hearn is no longer with the Highland Cavaliers, having departed the program after 13 games. UVa-Wise is 2-11 and has lost 11 straight since opening the season with victories over Morris and Voorhees.
Kristen Kunzman has been named interim coach and will make her debut in that position on Jan. 2 when the team travels to Union.
Kunzman becomes the Cavs’ fifth head coach in the last four years.
