South Portland native Jonathan Furbush has been named the men’s basketball coach at Bates College in Lewiston.

Furbush, a 2005 Bates graduate, replaces Joe Reilly, who resigned in April to take the head coaching job at Wesleyan University.

The 25-year-old Furbush served last season as an assistant coach at Springfield College, where he was pursuing a master’s degree in athletic administration. He previously spent two years on Reilly’s staff at Bates.
