Lady Tiger XC Coach Steps Down
By Staff Report-
Warsaw girls cross country coach Matt Campbell informed the Warsaw Community High School athletic department Tuesday that he is resigning as girls cross country coach.
Campbell, a former Tiger cross country runner, served as coach for three full seasons. He stepped in as interim coach in 2014 while coach Scott Erba took a leave of absence, and he led the Lady Tigers to a share of the Northern Lakes Conference championship, plus sectional and regional titles and a state finals qualification, where they finished 16th.
In Campbell’s first full season as head coach in the fall of 2016, the Lady Tigers completed a run of three consecutive NLC titles, then backed that up with sectional and regional titles, a third-place finish in the semi-state and 13th place finish at the state cross country finals in Terre Haute.
Last fall, they finished second in the NLC, came home as Culver Academy sectional and regional champions, and placed ninth in the New Prairie semi-state.
The search for a new coach is underway.
