ELLINWOOD — Ellinwood High School is down a couple of head coaches.
The Eagles are looking for a head softball coach and a head boys’ tennis coach to replace Mick Hitchmann and Lyle Stickney, respectively.
Ellinwood Athletic Director Kip Wilson said that he has been interviewing a number of interested candidates, and that he is hoping to make a decision on both positions soon.
“We’ve got some pretty solid candidates for both jobs,” Wilson said. “We’re hoping to be making our decisions soon.
“It’s not like we’re having to pick from what’s left out there. We have some great people interested in the jobs.”
Announcements won’t be made until after a Jan. 9 board meeting.
Along with the two head-coaching positions, Ellinwood is looking for an assistant softball coach and an assistant track and field coach.
At Ellinwood Middle School, it needs a head coach and an assistant coach for tennis.
