Chaminade-Madonna Elevates Assistant Coach to Coordinator Role

Chaminade-Madonna Lions head coach, Manny Martin, has promoted assistant coach, Ryan Thompson, to defensive coordinator. Thompson, a five-year veteran of the program, has played a crucial role in developing the Lions' defensive unit. The decision comes as the team prepares for the upcoming 3A season, following a 7-4 record in 2025. Thompson's promotion is expected to strengthen the Lions' defensive presence, particularly in the secondary. Recruiting efforts are also expected to benefit from Thompson's increased involvement, as he has established strong relationships with local high school coaches and players. The move is seen as a positive step for the program, which has consistently been a top contender in the 3A classification.
