The Cougars have their new varsity football coach.
Stoney Creek will name Rick Powell as their new varsity football coach. Powell replaces Nick Merlo who left to be the offensive coordinator at Orchard Lake St. Marys.
The move was confirmed on Powell's personal Twitter Page.
Powell became the defensive coordinator at Lake Orion in 2018 coming over from New Baltimore Anchor Bay. He is a math teacher at Lake Orion.
Powell is an Warren Cousino alumni. He will be tasked of turning around a Cougars program that went 3-6 last season. Stoney Creek has made the postseason three of the last five years but are 12-16 in the last three years.
Stoney Creek will be in the White next season after being in the Red for three years.
Powell will have to replace a ton of talent from this past season. It will be very interesting to see what changes he brings with the Cougars for next fall.
Stay tuned to OAA Now for the latest on this developing story.
Here's Powell's twitter page confirming the hire.
