Tom Head resigned after going 25-21 in two seasons with the girls basketball program.
âThere was more added to his regular job, and he felt like he wouldnât be able to be there as much as heâd like for the program,â Cole said.
Cole said interviews for the girls job have already started, and boys interviews will likely begin next week. He hopes to have candidates for both positions ready to put on the agenda for the May 21 school-board meeting.
Cole said heâs received about a dozen applications for each job. He confirmed that longtime Mother of Mercy coach Mary Jo Huismann is among the applicants for the girls position.
