Free State Hires New Wide Receivers Coach
Lawrence Free State High School has hired former Kansas City high school coach, Michael Johnson, as the new wide receivers coach for the Firebirds. The program, a 6A powerhouse in the Kansas City metropolitan area, finished with a 9-3 record last season and a second-place finish in the Sunflower League. Johnson's hiring is expected to bolster the Firebirds' passing game, which will be crucial in the competitive Sunflower League. The Firebirds have been actively recruiting top talent in the Kansas City area, and Johnson's experience will be valuable in attracting and developing skilled receivers. With the start of August camp just around the corner, Coach Johnson will be working closely with the Firebirds' coaching staff to prepare for the upcoming season.
