(1/2) Although we hate to see him go, Coach Johnny Fogleman is making a return to Malvern. It won't surprise any of us that he is doing it with transparency and character. We are thankful for that and his dedication to building an incredible program here at Catholic High.

(2/2) We wish him much success in his return to Malvern. Coach Richard Cochran, ‘91, has been named interim head football coach. Head of School Steve Straessle is leading a search committee to identify the best coach for us; applicants should send their intent directly to him.

Congratulations to Witt Stephens, Jr. '86 for being featured in AMP's 50 over 50. #alwaysarocket armoneyandpolitics.com/fifty-over-50-…
