Rolling Hills Prep has hired Ryan Silver as its new basketball coach, Athletic Director Brian Knigin said Monday.

Silver, a Malibu High graduate, served as an assistant coach at Newport Harbor, El Segundo and Lawndale and is taking on his first head coaching position.

Knigin, the school's former basketball coach, said he loves Silver's energy and enthusiasm.

"He's ready to rock and roll," Knigin said. "We know it's a rebuilding year, and it's kind of like (Rick) Neuheisel at UCLA -- not a lot left in the cupboard for this year. But I think Ryan will help build us back up pretty quickly."

Trading bat for pen, Thorpe wrote sports for the Long Beach Union newspaper at Long Beach State University, then worked as the sports editor for the Palos Verdes Peninsula News for seven years before climbing down the Hill to the Daily Breeze, where he has been a sports writer covering local sports since 2007.
