McDougall out of retirement… at St. Lukes

This comes as (kind of) a shock.

Jerry McDougall will be coaching football again.

The 74-year old National and Connecticut High School Coaches Association hall-of-famer, who coached for 44 years primarily as the head man at Trumbull until 1998, is joining Ryan Brown’s staff at St. Luke’s of New Canaan as the defensive coordinator.

Here’s the story by Dave Ruden that will appear in Saturday’s papers.

Wow. I didn’t know Coach still had it in ‘im.

But hey, if Coach McDougall still has the itch, St. Luke’s will be a nice fit for him. The Fairchester League is out of the spotlight somewhat and it can be pretty laid back at many of the league’s schools.

He should be able to shake off some of the coaching rust there and share from his well of football knowledge. The St. Luke’s kids are lucky to have him.

Lotsa luck, Coach.
