A Valley basketball coach has won a wrongful termination lawsuit.

WZDM Radio reports a Knox County Jury has awarded Dan Sparks a six-figure amount.

The long-time Vincennes University basketball coach sued after VU fired him in 2006.

Sparks has since become head coach at Wabash Valley College in Mount Carmel, Illinois.

The exact amount of Sparks' six-figure award has not been announced.  Vincennes University can appeal the verdict.
