VANCOUVER – The University of British Columbia Department of Athletics announced today that football head coach Ted Goveia will not be returning to the program for the 2010 season.
Goveia came to UBC in 2004 as the team's offensive coordinator before being promoted to head coach prior to the 2006 season.
In his four seasons at the helm, Goveia had a 12-20 regular season record. He led the Thunderbirds to the playoffs once during his tenure, in 2006, after UBC finished with a 4-4 record.
The search for a new head coach begins immediately and the Thunderbirds hope to name a new head coach in the coming months. In the interim, defensive coordinator Dino Geremia will serve as acting head coach.
For more information, please contact Ben Schach, UBC Thunderbirds Sports Information Director, at 604-822-9115.
