Although he has been working with the IPFW women's basketball team since practice time became available, IPFW officially named Lee Larkins as an assistant coach.
Larkins had been director and a coach for the Indiana Elite Central Girls AAU program and founder of the Indiana Explosion AAU Basketball Club.
He was also a three-year letterman for the Purdue football team, earning All-Big Ten honors in 1979 as a linebacker.
The women will open their season at 2 p.m. Sunday against SIU Edwardsville at Gates Center.
