UTSA Roadrunners men's basketball head coach Austin Claunch has been arrested and placed on administrative leave, the university announced Thursday. Details of the arrest were not immediately disclosed.
The news comes after the Roadrunners' 84-67 loss to Wichita State on March 1, 2026, at the UTSA Convocation Center. Claunch, who has led the program since 2023, was seen giving instructions during that game.
University officials said they are cooperating with law enforcement and will provide further information as it becomes available. The athletic department has not yet named an interim coach.
