Mishawaka boys - Departing Coach Bodie Bender
MISHAWAKA, Ind. – (Updated 5/14) Coach Bender departs to take the Elkhart boys gig. Over half of 4A MC’s schedule consists of smaller schools. Varsity Club member reports that may serve them long term in regards to regular season wins and losses. Last season the Cavemen were in full rebuild mode after back-2-back Sectional titles and their first Regional title since 1955. The 5-18 roster came back to Earth and will likely find the going hard scrabble again. Good Varsity Club member reports this is where the schedule may gain some value. Two 6-3’s are about it for length, and while there are some scrappers in the program, nobody is going to drop 18 on a regular basis. Another strong JV group moving up which should help. Speaking of..

COach Blasko previously led the Cavemen girls squad to four competitive seasons before moving to the boys side. Coaching job not officially posted yet by school corp, but good Varsity Club member reports Eled openings, HS Tech, and MS Science for sure. Coolest old gym - Tha Cave!
