The Winfield native will replace Jason Conner, who was fired after a 6-21 season.
Boone went 22-9 in his only season at Wesleyan that included the Bobcats' first-ever win in the NCAA Division II tournament.
Boone has also had coaching stints at Tusculum, Eastern Michigan, Robert Morris, and California, Pa.
