Medved’s most recent season was his best yet as a head coach, leading a team projected to finish 7th in the Mountain West to a 2nd-place finish and a tournament title. His Rams earned a 12-seed in the NCAA tournament, where they upset Memphis and gave Maryland a tough game, leading for most of the contest before a controversial buzzer-beater ended their run.
Medved and his wife, Erica (a former pitcher for Furman’s softball team), are returning to Minnesota with their two young daughters to be closer to family. Over the next few weeks, Medved will face the challenge of retaining and building his roster for next season while assembling his coaching staff and settling his family into their new home.
