Reno Huskies Promote Assistant Coach to Coordinator Role

The Reno Huskies have elevated assistant coach, Michael Johnson, to the position of defensive coordinator. Johnson spent five seasons developing talent on the Huskies' defense, helping the team improve from a 2-8 record in 2022 to a 7-3 mark in 2025. The 5A program's resurgence has drawn attention from top recruits in the region, with several high-profile prospects committing to the Huskies in recent weeks. Johnson's promotion is expected to further boost the program's recruiting efforts, as the coach's defensive expertise is seen as a major selling point for prospective student-athletes. The Huskies' improved defense, combined with their strong offense, positions the team to compete for a league title in the upcoming season.
