New Head Coach Not Coming Home

            After resigning from Ankeny, head coach Brad Zelenovich is no longer returning to Southeast Polk. The hire of the former Southeast Polk assistant was pending school board approval, which did not pass, so the Rams will continue their search for a new head coach.
            “Brad is a great coach and I know that he will have a job by the time football season starts,” Iowa Hawkeyes head football coach Kirk Ferentz said. “Southeast Polk is missing out on a once in a lifetime football coach, who knows how to win games.”
            In two seasons at Ankeny, Zelenovich had a 4-6 season and a 9-3 season, respectively, as well as leading the Hawks to the poatseason in both of his seasons. After former head coach Denny Muller resigned from Southeast Polk, Zelenovich was intending to return to the Rams, where he was an assistant coach for ten years.
            “It’s a tragedy that Z won’t be allowed back to possibly lead his old school to a state title,” Iowa State head coach Paul Rhoads said. “The potential that Brad brings to any program as a coach is just outstanding. It’s a shame that he won’t get that chance.”
            The Rams will continue their search for a new head coach, as the team starts heading into offseason workouts. That new coach will get their first taste of action when the Rams take on the Johnston Dragons on August 28 at home.

APRIL FOOLS!
