Brother Rice Crusaders' Head Coach Signs Contract Extension Through 2029
Brother Rice Crusaders head coach, Mike Makoyaworld, has signed a contract extension through 2029, the school announced Thursday. The move comes after back-to-back playoff runs for the Crusaders, who have established themselves as a consistent force in the 8A classification.
