The winningest coach in Kent State history is here to stay.
Rob Senderoff signed an extension to remain the Golden Flashes’ Men’s Basketball Head Coach through the 2025-26 season. The announcement was made Tuesday by newly appointed Director of Athletics Randale Richmond.
“We’re thrilled to extend the contract of Coach Senderoff,” Richmond said. “His consistency is a testament to the passion he brings to the game.”
Senderoff has been the Flashes’ bench boss for 10 seasons, tied with Jim McDonald for longest tenure in school history. He was hired in 2011 after three previous seasons as the associate head coach under Geno Ford. He has also been an assistant at Yale, Towson, Indiana, and Fordham.
