Catholic High Bears Tab New Wide Receivers Coach

The Catholic High Bears have hired John Smith as their new wide receivers coach, the program announced Thursday. Smith's hiring comes ahead of the team's August training camp, as the Bears prepare for their 5A schedule. Last season, the Bears finished with a 7-4 record, narrowly missing the playoffs. Smith's addition is expected to bolster the team's receiving corps, which will be key in the competitive Southwestern Athletic Conference. The Bears have been actively recruiting in the Baton Rouge area, and Smith's local ties are seen as a major asset. With Smith at the helm, Catholic High is looking to build on last season's momentum and make a deeper run in the playoffs.
