  Washington, DC (Sports Network) - George Washington University announced Tuesday that assistant women's basketball coach Mike Bozeman has been promoted to head coach.

  Bozeman becomes the eighth head coach in the 34-year history of the program. He takes over for Joe McKeown, who resigned earlier in the month to take a similar position with Northwestern.

  Over the last three seasons with Bozeman as an assistant, the Colonials have racked up a 78-20 overall mark with a 39-5 record in Atlantic 10 play and made the Sweet 16 in each of the last two years.

  "This is going to be a family affair and that's how we are going to do things here at George Washington," Bozeman noted. "The last two years we have two straight Sweet 16s and 78 victories and I don't plan on that changing." Bozeman is the younger brother of Todd Bozeman, who led the University of California in the mid-1990s and who is now head coach at Morgan State.
