I have heard from great sources that D3 Penn State Abington intends to name Ryan Van Zelst as their new Head Men’s Basketball Coach.

Van Zelst has been on the staff at D3 University of Scranton since the 2015-16 season, and was elevated to the role of associate head coach prior to last year. During his time at Scranton, the Royals have gone 113-55, and captured two Landmark Conference Championships. He was also named to the 2016-17 Under Armour 30-Under-30 by the National Association of Basketball Coaches.

Prior to his time at Scranton, Van Zelst was an assistant at his alma mater Albright College (2014-15), and York College (2012-14).

He will replace Jon Tanous, who resigned back in early April.

An official announcement is expected shortly.
