During Monday night’s Western Plains Unified School District 106 meeting in Bazine, Kan., the board made a decision to change up the leadership for the Bobcat football program.
The board named Todd Vogts – a Western Plains High School paraeducator, bus driver, substitute and assistant boys’ basketball coach – as the interim gridiron head coach.
The position was offered to and accepted by Vogts because the football head coaching job was vacant due the ending of the previous coaching term.
Superintendent Kerry Lacock said the announcement was being made public today. He said the move to bring Vogts in now was made in order to dispel any rumors that Western Plains High School would have no football team next year.
Lacock said WPHS would have a team and that he was looking forward to the coming season.
“We’re excited about this new page in the story of the Bobcat football program,” he said.
Hi, this is Joel’s mom, do you know more or less who are the kids going out for football next year. I would really like to know if possible
We don’t have names yet, but Joel tells me he thinks he has about 13 people who are going to come out at this point.
