Laramie High School will hire Thermopolis coach Chuck Syverson as its next head coach, KOWB Radio in Laramie reported.

Syverson led Thermopolis to Class 2A championships in 2009 and 2010. He was 30-14 in four seasons leading the Bobcats; Thermopolis went 2-7 in 2012.

Prior to coming to Thermopolis, Syverson was the head coach at Spearfish (S.D.) High School.

The hiring is dependent on the approval of the Albany County school board; the board meets Wednesday, KOWB reported.

Syverson replaces Ted Holmstrom, who stepped down after one year as head coach of the Plainsmen.

Laramie went 1-8 in 2012. The Plainsmen have not won a playoff game since 2000.
