winter/spring sports head coaches.

There were some that thought Mike Eaves job security was at bit iffy after a slow start this past season.  But a fantastic second half finish and trip to the NCAA Tournament wiped away any speculation about Eaves future in Madison.  The UW Athletic Board extended his five-year contract through June 30, 2018.  Women’s hockey coach Mark Johnson also had his 5-year deal extended through that same date.

Men’s basketball coach Bo Ryan and women’s coach Bobbie Kelsey had their 5-year deals extended through May 31st, 2018.  Wrestling Coach Barry Davis had his three-year contract extended through May 31, 2016.  Men’s and Women’s Swimming and Diving Coach Whitney Hite’s one-year contract was renewed through June 14, 2014.
