(KNZA)--A new head Horton High School football coach has been hired.
Following an executive session, the USD 430 Board of Education Monday evening voted to hire Mark Friess, of Netawaka, for the position.
Friess has served as head football coach at several Kansas schools—including Jackson Heights, Greensburg and Mankato.
He will replace longtime coach Nick Dowell, who will return next school year as an assistant on the team.
The Board also filled several other positions for next school year. Todd Dulac, of Atchison, was hired as head volleyball coach, Zachary Nelson as elementary physical education teacher and Kari Case as a kindergarten teacher.
In addition, Grady Miller was hired as a summer student worker and David Pottroff to mow district properties.
