DENVER — Joe Scott, a former assistant coach at Princeton University, has been named the new men's basketball coach at the Air Force Academy, school officials said Friday.

Air Force athletic director Col. Randall Spetman said Scott was the right fit for the Air Force team.

"He's a person of integrity who comes from a prestigious institution and a great basketball program that deals with the same type of young men as we do at the Academy," Spetman said.
