FULLERTON — Roger See, in his 14th season as the Fullerton men’s basketball coach, said Tuesday he will take a one-year sabbatical starting next fall.
Tim Sweeney, an assistant coach in his third season at the school, will replace See.
See, who has been head coach or an assistant for the last 27 seasons, said he plans to spent more time with his wife and two daughters as well as be a visiting scholar at Cambridge University in England in the spring of 1996.
See was a history major at Cal State Fullerton and teaches history in the summer. He spent three months in England in the spring of 1992 teaching a class of students from Fullerton and Cypress colleges.
“It will be a nice change for me,” See said. “My family will get a big piece of my time. . . . Tim’s the perfect choice. He’s a basketball junkie.”
Fullerton is 8-8 and See has a record of 232-184.
Sweeney last was a head coach at Lakewood High, where he was 220-105 and won a Southern Section title in his 13 years at the school.
