Camp Hill football finds its man

Special thanks go out this morning to Sentinel reporter Tom Ash, who broke the story of Camp Hill hiring former Red Land coach Frank Gay to lead its football team.

Gay resigned from Red Land after being the head coach for eight seasons. In that span, Red Land won its first district playoff game and captured the 2006 District 3 Class AAA title.

Our earlier post on Gay resigning from Red Land can be found here.

Gay will take over the Camp Hill program pending approval from the school board, which is scheduled to meet March 14.

Now that it looks like Camp Hill has filled its opening, the only area job that remains vacant is Red Land.

Cedar Cliff nearly had a vacancy when Jim Cantafio was named a finalist for the Hempfield job but was ultimately passed over. Hempfield determined neither Cantafio nor Mark Evans, the other finalist, were qualified for the job.

The coaching search at Hempfield continues.
