† 2017 OVC tournament winner |
The 2016–17 Austin Peay Governors basketball team represented Austin Peay State University during the 2016–17 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Governors, led by 27th-year head coach Dave Loos, played their home games at the Dunn Center in Clarksville, Tennessee and were members of the West Division of the Ohio Valley Conference (OVC). They finished the season 11–19, 7–9 in conference play, to finish in fourth place in the West Division. They failed to qualify for the Ohio Valley Conference tournament.
On March 2, 2017, head coach Dave Loos announced his retirement. He had been undergoing cancer treatment during the season, and had taken a medical leave in January 2017, missing four games.[1] He finished with a 27-year record of 420–410. On April 3, South Carolina assistant Matt Figger was hired as the new head coach of APSU.[2]
