6 LORENZO ROMAR

Lorenzo Romar, who has been a successful head coach for more than two decades and is known as one of the nation’s top recruiters, returned to Pepperdine prior to the 2018-19 season for his second stint in charge of the men’s basketball program.

At the start of the 2020-21 season, Romar had a career record of 423-318 over 23 seasons as a head coach at Pepperdine, Saint Louis and Washington.

Romar posted a 42-44 record at Pepperdine from 1997-99 in his fi rst head coaching job. In fi ve full seasons, his record was 74-78.

After an initial rebuilding season in 1996-97, he led the Waves to 17 and 19 wins the next two years. An 11-win improvement from year one to year two ranked as one of the nation’s top turnarounds. In 2018-19, he took the Waves from six to 16 victories, meaning that he’s been responsible for two of the four times in Pepperdine history that the Waves have improved by double-digit wins.

At UW, he built the Huskies into a perennial contender over 15 seasons. He helped produce 11 NBA fi rst-round draft picks and 17 NBA players, while his teams played in six NCAA Tournaments, three NITs and one CBI. He was a three-time Pac-10 or Pac-12 Coach of the Year. At Washington and Arizona, where he was the associate head coach for one season before coming to Pepperdine, Romar worked with back-to-back NBA #1 overall draft picks (Markelle Fultz and DeAndre Ayton).

Romar won an NCAA title as an assistant coach at UCLA in 1995. He was selected in the seventh round of the 1980 NBA Draft and played fi ve seasons in the NBA. He played collegiately at Washington.

STAFF Associate head coach Ken Bone, a former head coach at Washington State, Portland State and Seattle Pacifi c, was also an assistant coach under Romar at Washington for three seasons ... Assistant coach Curtis Allen played for Romar at Washington and was an assistant coach at Washington State for nine seasons (he was an assistant to Bone at both WSU and Portland State) ... Assistant coach Gerald Brown is a former Pepperdine great who played for Romar for two seasons and was a three-time All-WCC fi rst team honoree between 1994-98. He played a season in the NBA with the Phoenix Suns and was also briefl y a Harlem Globetrotter ... Director of operations John Impelman is in his 12th year on Pepperdine’s staff . Romar is the third head coach he has worked for in various capacities. Impelman is the great-grandson of UCLA coaching legend John Wooden, and his father Craig is a former Pepperdine assistant coach ... Connor Griffi n (who played basketball at Gonzaga and football at Washington) went from graduate manager to video coordinator ... Amadi Udenyi (who ranks #5 all-time at Pepperdine in assists) is in his second year as a graduate manager ... Keith Smith, limited by injury last year, took a medical retirement ahead of what could have been his fi nal playing season. He graduated in 2020 and is staying on as a graduate manager. PEPPERDINE

Pepperdine boasts a one-of-a-kind athletic department with unprecedented success for a school of its size. The Waves have won NCAA Division I championships in fi ve diff erent men’s sports — one of just 18 schools to have accomplished this feat — and nine overall. Of this elite group, Pepperdine has the smallest undergraduate enrollment, is the only school without football and is the only university that has not been affi liated with a “major” conference. The Waves have won a total of 25 team or individual national championships in their history. Pepperdine has also earned the Division I-AAA All-Sports Trophy, an award based on postseason success that’s given to the top non-football school, three times (most recently in 2011-12). Located in scenic Malibu, California, the university overlooks the Pacifi c Ocean and its campus and athletic facilities are regularly voted among the nation’s most beautiful. Pepperdine, which is affi liated with the Church of Christ, ranks #49 overall on U.S. News and World Report’s list of America’s best colleges. 7 PEPPERDINE TV/RADIO ROSTER 0 2 3 4 5
