Mandan Braves Promote Assistant Coach to Coordinator Role
Mandan Braves head coach, Kevin Lewis, has elevated assistant coach, Tyler Johnson, to the position of coordinator ahead of the 2026 season. Johnson spent four seasons developing talent and building relationships within the program. During his tenure, the Braves have maintained a competitive record, including a 9-2 mark in 2024 and a 7-4 finish in 2025. As coordinator, Johnson will oversee the team's offense, focusing on building a strong running game and improving quarterback play. His promotion is expected to have a significant impact on recruiting, as local players will be drawn to the opportunity to work with a respected coach. The move also sets the stage for a competitive season in the Class AA East Region, where the Braves will look to challenge for a state championship.
