Coach Pope began his coaching career at BC as the junior varsity coach from 2007-2009. In 2010 he became the assistant varsity coach, a position he still holds.
“Coach Pope is an integral part of our staff and he has had a huge hand in our success over the last eight years,” Jensen said.
Coach Pope is a valuable member of the Buckeye Central coaching staff and his efforts are being recognized statewide. Congratulations Coach Pope.
