CHIEFS ANNOUNCE HIGH SCHOOL COACHES OF THE WEEK: WEEK 10

The 2008 High School Coach of the Week program is a joint initiative of the Kansas City Chiefs, the Chiefs Ambassadors and the National Football League. Supported locally by the US Army, this program is designed to recognize and reward Kansas City area high school coaches for superior performance throughout the year.

The following coaches were selected from Missouri and Kansas, respectively, as the High School Coach of the Week for week 10 of the 2008 high school football season:

Missouri Kansas
Coach Fred Bouchard Coach George Radell

Staley High School Mill Valley High School

Staley High School was productive in all facets of the game in their victory over Central, 34-12. The Falcons scored on the ground, through the air, on defense and on special teams. The first year football program at Staley improved to 8-2 on the year.
