The University of Maryland Eastern Shore Department of Athletics will not renew the contract of head basketball coach Bobby Collins.
“We thank Bobby Collins for his service to the program and the University,” Director of Athletics Keith Davidson said.
Associate Head Coach Clifford Reed will assume the role of interim head coach for the 2018-19 season and a national search to find the next leader for the basketball program will be conducted at the end of that season.
Reed — a 20-year veteran of coaching — has spent four season’s as the team’s associate head coach, seven seasons as an assistant at other college programs, 10 seasons as the head coach at Bethune-Cookman University and three as a head coach at Atlantic High School in Port Orange, Florida.
