UALR names another assistant
UALR Coach Chris Curry added another piece to his staff Friday with the hiring of assistant coach Ronald Fanning, the school announced. Fanning spent the past three seasons as a volunteer assistant at Oklahoma State. His three seasons with the Cowboys culminated in a trip to the NCAA super regional this season. Before that, Fanning was an assistant at NCAA Division II Southeastern Oklahoma State. Fanning is the second hire Curry has made this week as Russell Raley was named to work with infielders.
