Lakewood Park boys – Can now confirm that Lakewood Park Christian School, a 1A school located in Auburn, is official open. Coach Chad Hibbad will not be back for a fourth season after going 26-43. The Panthers went 6-11 last year and struggled through an 11 game losing that stretched through December and much of January. Good news is that Lakewood only loses 3 seniors and only 19 points of their 56 PPG. Their best player is set to return in 6-2 Sr-2-b PG Keegan Fetters. Fetters dropped in 19 an outing an also added 7 RPG and 4 APG. Varsity Clubber also reports some other pretty decent underclassmen. Admin takes unusual step to state, “It is certainly not our intention to recruit anyone away from a present head coaching position, but if you know you know of someone within your program or elsewhere who is ready to become a varsity head coach; has solid character, strong leadership, coaching skills, and basketball knowledge; has a program building mindset; and who shares this vision, please forward this email to them and encourage them to apply at https://phl.applitrack.com/lakewoodpark/onlineapp/default.aspx?Category=Athletics/Activities.” Reportedly admin would like to pair with social studies opening but would not rule out a lay coach.
