CHS football news

The envelope please!


Thursday night, the Columbia School Board is expected to name a replacement for Jason Shoff as Crimson Tide football coach.

The new football coach that is expected to be approved by the board is Michael Burke III, longtime assistant up on the hill and the son of former CHS sideline boss Mike Burke.

Burke III is a former CHS player and has served a number of years as the Tide’s defensive coordinator.

The Tide is coming off an 0-10 season in 2009.

The schedule the new coach will face will be slightly easier than the one the Tide played this past season. Gone from the schedule are District Three playoff qualifiers Lampeter-Strasburg, who moved up to Section II in the L-L League and York Suburban, who will now become a scrimmage for the Tide.

The 2010 schedule is as follows:
Sept. 3, Eastern (5-5)
Sept, 10, at Northeastern (4-6)
Sept. 17, Daniel Boone (9-3), District Three playoff qualifier, who lost to Manheim Centra, 24-20 and is the only 4-A team on the Tide’s schedule.
Sept. 24, at Boiling Springs (5-4)
Oct. 1, Elco (8-3)
Oct. 8, at Northern Lebanon (6-4), only other team in Section 3 with new coach as Ray Ball replaces longtime NL coach Jack Beidler.
Oct. 15, at Annville-Cleona (3-7)
Oct. 22, Lancaster Catholic (16-0), reigning Class AA state champions.
Oct. 29, Pequea Valley (2-8)
Nov. 5, at Donegal (2-8).
