Women's basketball coach Pat Knapp will not have his contract renewed by the University, a Penn Athletics press release stated.
"We are disappointed that we did not attain the levels of success we anticipated," athletic director Steve Bilsky said in the release. "We thank Pat for his efforts, and we wish him the very best in his future endeavors."
Knapp came to Penn after coaching at Georgetown for 18 years. However, he only went 48-90 (28-42 Ivy) in his five years as coach at Penn, including this year's 9-19, 6-8 Ivy mark.
A search for Knapp's replacement is already underway, the release said.
