Joe Campbell, who has spent several years as a youth football coach in Casper, will be the new head football coach at Midwest.
The school announced Campbell’s selection on its Facebook page on Wednesday.
Campbell, a Casper native, has spent 12 years coaching as part of the Casper Midget Football Association, the school’s post said.
Campbell replaces Dean Kelly, who was the Oilers’ head coach for one season.
Midwest, a Class 1A six-man program, finished the 2019 season 1-7 after forfeiting its final four games due to low numbers.
Four Class 3A programs — Green River, Powell, Riverton and Worland — have also hired new head coaches since the end of last season. If you know of other head coaching changes statewide, please email me at pschmiedt@yahoo.com.
