With newly retired coach Buddy Gardler on hand Tuesday, Cardinal O'Hara ushered in a new era of Lions basketball.

The Lions introduced Tim Kelly, who served as Gardler's top assistants for the past 11 seasons, as Gardler's successor. Here's the report on Kelly:

• An O'Hara alumnus and former baseball and basketball player at the school.
• A graduate of Muhlenberg College, where he played basketball.
• The Lions' top scouting assistant, Kelly also worked with their post players.
