MILWAUKEE (AP) — Former Marquette basketball coach Hank Raymonds has died after a long battle with cancer. He was 86.

The school said Raymonds died early Monday.

Raymonds, a former assistant coach under Al McGuire, took over as head coach after McGuire’s departure in 1977 and coached until 1983, compiling a career record of 126-50. All six of his Marquette teams advanced to postseason play, including five trips to the NCAA Tournament.

After his coaching career was over, he continued working as the school’s athletic director until 1987.
