Mandan Braves Eyeing Experienced Coordinator Hire
The Mandan Braves football program is reportedly in the market for an experienced coordinator to join head coach Mike Kelly's staff. Sources close to the program indicate that Kelly is seeking a veteran coach to help stabilize the team's offense, which struggled to find consistency last season. The Braves finished with a 4-5 record in Class AA, a significant drop-off from their 2019 state championship season. If a coordinator is hired, it could have a significant impact on the program's recruiting efforts, particularly in the western part of the state. Longtime coordinator and assistant coach, Mike Hanson, is set to retire after 17 seasons with the program, and his departure has created a void that Kelly is eager to fill.
