The search is finally over for now former Wisconsin women's basketball assistant coach Kathi Bennett.
Bennett has been named the new head coach at Northern Illinois. The announcement came on Tuesday at a news conference in DeKalb, Ill.
The daughter of one time Wisconsin men's coach Dick Bennett will now return to head coaching for the first time since leaving Indiana in 2005. Kathi Bennett joined the Wisconsin program during the 2007-2008 season.
The new job marks the end to a whirl-wind offseason when Bennett was turned down for two head coaching positions. One at Indiana State and the other at Wright State.
Bennett will take over a program that went just 10-19 last season, but returns a solid core of players for Bennett to work with next season.
