Michael McGuire, the football coach in Riverside the past four years, resigned last week. He compiled a 28-13 record in his four seasons leading the Rebel football team, including a 2A state championship in 2007 and a runner-up finish in 2006.
The 2007 championship was the school’s first in football and was also the first state football championship for the community of Basin.
McGuire was also Riverside’s girls basketball coach.
He said the school hasn’t hired a new head coach yet but said a search has started.
McGuire is (to the best of my knowledge) the fourth coach in the state to vacate his post. Rawlins, Jackson and Evanston will also have new coaches in 2010.
Best of luck to coach McGuire in his future endeavors!

Also, this isn’t directly football related, but Wyoming sports fans might be interested to know that girls basketball coach Bob Geiser was not retained by the Lovell school board. It’s somewhat odd timing for such a change, especially considering Geiser’s success….
