Head Football Coach Duane Matthess: "Coach Simpson is a veteran coach that is just the type of presence we need as the Head Junior Varsity Coach. He has been coaching for over twenty years and his calm demeanor is just what the Junior Varsity program needs leading it. His expertise will be invaluable for Coach Mehrle as the assistant offensive line coach for the varsity program.
