“I would like to thank SVSU for giving me the opportunity to serve as the head coach of my alma mater for the past seven years,” Pewinski said in an of cial statement. “I am proud of what we achieved on the court and in the classroom. I realize that leaving the team at the start of a new season is unusual, but I feel that is in the best interests of the team and myself for me to pursue new opportunities at this time.”
