"It was a great experience for Vinny to spend time with our staff, and this opportunity for him to move on was unexpected but something he could not pass up," said Kamrass. "We are not only proud to move players up an on to the NCAA level, but coaches as well. We wish him the best of luck in his future endeavors."
RoadRunners GM Joe Clark said the organization will begin the search for Bohn's replacement immediately.
"This will be a great opportunity for someone," said Clark. "We do not have a timetable, but obviously the season is about to get underway. We will let the process play itself out."
