EAHS football coaching update

I grabbed a few minutes with EAHS Athletic Director Shane Piper prior to Wednesday's boys basketball game, and he gave me a quick update on the district's search for a new head football coach.

Piper said the district has gone through the first round of interviewing candidates and has narrowed it down to its finalists. No word on who those finalists are or how many of them there are.

In the next week or so, the next round of interviewing will be done with the finalists, and Piper hopes to have a new head coach recommended to the school board at its March meeting.

Looks like they are entering the home stretch of finding a candidate. Of course, when I hear anything else, I'll keep you all updated.
