Cathedral Elevates Assistant Coach to Coordinator Role
Cathedral High School has promoted assistant coach Michael O'Connor to defensive coordinator, the program announced Thursday. O'Connor has spent the past five seasons developing talent within the Fighting Irish program, which has seen a resurgence in recent years. Cathedral has won 22 games over the past three seasons, including a 2023 sectional championship. The move comes as the program prepares for its fifth consecutive 5A state playoff appearance. O'Connor's promotion is expected to have a significant impact on Cathedral's recruiting efforts, as the Fighting Irish look to maintain their competitive edge in the highly competitive Indianapolis City Conference. With O'Connor at the helm, Cathedral is poised to continue its dominance in the state's top classification.
