USC Aiken assistant takes D-III women's job

USC Aiken assistant men's basketball coach Nate Davis has been named head women's coach at NCAA Division III Eastern University in St. Davids, Pa.

He has spent the past five years at USC Aiken under Vince Alexander and helped turned the program around, with the Pacers winning a school-record 72 games over the past three seasons.

Davis becomes former USC Aiken assistant athletic director for communications and promotions and current Eastern director of athletics Brad Fields' first official hire. Davis will begin his duties on Aug. 9.

Prior to coming to USC Aiken, Davis served as an assistant coach under Alexander at Mansfield (Pa.) University for five seasons.
