Pierre Governors Promote Assistant to Coordinator Role

The Pierre Governors, an 11A program in South Dakota, have elevated assistant coach Ryan Thompson to coordinator. Thompson has spent three seasons developing talent within the program, helping the Governors improve from a 2-7 record in 2023 to a 5-4 finish in 2025. His promotion is expected to boost recruiting efforts, particularly in the state's western region. The move also positions the program for increased competitiveness in the upcoming season. As a coordinator, Thompson will oversee the team's defensive unit, a key area of focus for the Governors. With the 2026 season on the horizon, Pierre fans are eager to see the impact Thompson's promotion will have on the team's performance.
