Martin Bahar (above, left) was named Princeton's Director of Basketball Operations today. Bahar replaces Dan Connelly, who left Coach Sydney Johnson's staff earlier this summer to accept a graduate assistant position at Memphis.
Bahar comes to Princeton from Washington, DC - where he was an assistant in the Georgetown basketball office and had previously been a graduate manager for the Hoyas.
He shared the program's Team Manager Award with Greg Feeney, Chris Golski and Ray Moss at Georgetown's 2008 postseason basketball banquet.
You can read quotes from Bahar in a Camille Powell piece from the Washington Post about the networking that takes place at the Final Four.
DC Sports Bog had a humorous post about Bahar before Georgetown played Vanderbilt in the 2007 NCAA Tournament - a game that pitted Bahar's undergraduate institution against his grad school.
