"I come from an environment where the expectation is to win, and that is why I chose Marquette," Wojciechowski said in a statement.
"I am particularly impressed with Marquette's investment in men's basketball and I'm thrilled to join an institution with so much rich history in both basketball and academic excellence. Having been a student-athlete, I know first-hand what it takes to succeed both on and off the court, and I bring tremendous passion when it comes to shaping our players into successful athletes and men."

The 37-year-old Wojciechowski starred for Duke in the late 1990s and was elevated to associate head coach in 2008. At Marquette, he replaces Buzz Williams, who after leading the Warriors to the NCAA tournament in five of six seasons, left last month to assume the head coaching position at Virginia Tech.
