After a championship runner-up finish and the team's first East Division regular-season title, the Chiba Jets Funabashi aren't making wholesale changes as they prepare for the upcoming season.

Head coach Atsushi Ono, who has guided the Jets to 44- and 46-win campaigns in 2016-17 and this past season, respectively, will remain in charge, the team announced last Friday.

Assistant coaches Calvin Oldham and Yoshinori Kaneta are also both being retained.
