OMAHA, Neb. (AP) _ Randall Herbst has joined the University of Nebraska at Omaha men's basketball coaching staff as a full-time assistant.

Herbst replaces six-year assistant Kenya Crandell, who accepted a similar position at Sacramento State.

Herbst has spent the past season as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at Florida Southern College. Before that, the 1993 Winona State graduate served as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at North Dakota from 2000-06. He was the associate coach at UND from 2004-06. He was the head coach at Waldorf Junior College from 1998-2000.

UNO head coach Derrin Hansen says Randall's experience in the North Central Conference and his knowledge of Division II basketball will be a tremendous help to the Mavericks program.
