WESTERVILLE, Ohio (AP) — Otterbein University has picked Todd Adrian to be its next men's basketball coach.

The 41-year-old Adrian comes to the central Ohio school in Westerville from Edgewood College in Madison, Wis., where he had served as the men's basketball coach since 2006. Adrian had a 97-65 record over six seasons at the college. He guided the Eagles to an NCAA Division III tournament bid, and Edgewood finished the year at 23-7.

Adrian replaces retired Otterbein coach Dick Reynolds, who held the position for four decades and was the most successful coach in Ohio Athletic Conference history.

Adrian is a native of Wichita, Kan., and got his bachelor's degree in education from the University of Kansas. He and his wife have 4-year-old twins.
