Brent Owen ENMU Men’s Basketball Coach
Brent Owen, the new men’s basketball head coach, said he’s excited about the opportunity to lead the Greyhounds on the court, quite possibly this spring, and is also excited to offer alumni and fans a chance to support the program through the fundraising initiative, Fast Break Club. “Our level of success is be determined in large part by our ability to raise money that can fund needs we have on an annual basis,” Owen said. “Additional scholarship money is at the top of the list.” Alumni are encouraged to donate at enmu.edu/FastBreakClub. Likewise, the ENMU baseball team is running a fundraiser, with donors receiving vintage Eastern baseball jerseys from past Riley Price ENMU Baseball Coach
seasons. To secure your jersey, give at enmu.edu/BaseballJersey.
