Less than a month after seemingly squaring away its sports coaches roster for the 2010-11 school year, Chillicothe High School finds itself with three head coaching vacancies to fill and a key football assistant coaching post, too.
The first two openings – baseball head coach and football assistant – officially developed last week when Dave Mapel received the post of clubhouse manager at the city-owned Green Hills Golf Course.
Mapel, a teacher and coach at CHS since the late 1970s, has been the only head coach of the Hornets baseball team since its 1997 inception. Jim Wheeler has been his assistant the past two or three years after now-retired Jim Radel filled that role the program’s first decade.
Mapel also was a line coach and offensive coordinator for the football Hornets, serving in the latter role throughout Phil Willard’s current 13-year tenure as head coach.
This week, it was disclosed that, due to a change in his job, Bill Allison will be unable to continue in his volunteer-basis position as boys’ and girls’ soccer head coach.
