After the departure of John Rositano, former assistant coach Matt Kielian is being recommended as the new varsity head coach for the Lorain boys basketball program!

Coach Kielian has served in various basketball coaching roles at Southview and Lorain over the past 15 seasons.

“I don’t feel that there’s any person more capable of leading our basketball program.  Coach Kielian is extremely knowledgeable and has a great feel for our kids and community.  He has gone above and beyond to help our kids both on and off the court over the past 15 years”, said Athletic Director Bryan Koury.

Kielian is a 1993 graduate from Lorain High School and has stuck around the area ever since. The hiring of Kielian is pending Lorain City School Board approval on Monday night.
