New football coach sought at Damien
Advertiser Staff
Dean Nakagawa, who helped coach the Damien football team for the past six seasons, won't be back as its head coach, athletic director Pohai Lee said."It was a tough decision," Lee said. "Dean is a good man. We appreciate the effort that Dean and his staff put forward. However, we decided to go in a different direction."
Damien finished 3-7-1 overall. It last qualified for the state Division II tournament in 2003.
Nakagawa was a co-head coach with Rudy Alejo for five seasons and assumed a solo head coaching role last season.
Applications are now being taken. Interested parties should contact Lee by Friday, Feb. 2.
Inquiries may be made by e-mailing Lee at lee@damien.edu with the guideline "Football coach" or by calling him at the school: 841-0195 x526.
