"I want to thank Jenny for her efforts and contributions over the past 2 1/2 years," Whisenant said Sunday night. "The team is 3-10 overall; we still have over half the season left and we felt it necessary to make this change. We feel like this is a playoff-caliber team that can compete and to dig ourselves down any further wouldn't be prudent."
Boucek produced a 40-41 record in two-plus years as the Monarchs' coach.
