WARSAW – Warsaw Community Schools announced Wednesday the addition of Brian Lockhart as the Warsaw Community High School strength and conditioning coach. Lockhart will assume his role working with coaches and students in mid-November.
“I am excited to be tasked with building the Tiger’s strength and conditioning department and look forward to the future accomplishments that come along with implementing such a program,” noted Lockhart. “With the support of administrators, KCH and the community, we will create an atmosphere of success for student-athletes and, moving forward, serve as a model for similar programs.”
