Wise Pumas Promote Assistant Coach to Coordinator Role

The Wise Pumas, a 4A program from Upper Marlboro, have elevated assistant coach Ryan Thompson to the role of defensive coordinator. Thompson, who has spent four seasons developing talent within the program, will oversee the Pumas' defense as they look to build on a 7-3 record in 2025. The move is expected to have a significant impact on the team's recruiting efforts, as Thompson's reputation as a developer of young talent is well-known throughout the region. The Pumas will face increased competition in the 4A classification, where several top programs are expected to challenge for the state title. With Thompson at the helm, Wise is poised to make a strong push in the coming season.
