Star Valley’s offensive coordinator for the past four seasons will take over as head coach for the defending Class 3A champions, the Star Valley Independent reported Tuesday.

McKay Young will be the new head coach for the Braves, the paper reported. He takes over for Chris Howell, who led the Braves to the 3A championship in November but resigned to take another coaching position in Utah.

In addition to his four years with the Braves, Young was the head coach for three years at Malad High School in Idaho, compiling a 25-6 record there.

Young is the state’s first new head coach to be brought on for the 2016 season. Cheyenne South coach Tracy Pugh has also resigned, but a new coach hasn’t been named yet for the Bison. News of other coaching changes can be emailed to pschmiedt@yahoo.com.
