Coach Arnold leaves Norwell

Norwell Football's Defensive Coordinator and Social Studies teacher Jason Arnold has been hired as head coach of South Adams.

During Arnold's seven years serving as the defensive coordinator for Jeff Miller at Norwell, the Knights were 53-31 with a 14-1 campaign in 2006 when their only loss was a 7-0 thriller to Indianapolis Chatard in the Class 3A state championship game. The Knights also won two other sectional championships during Arnold's tenure (2003 and 2004). He also spent his final year in college, at Ball State, serving as a student assistant coach because of two torn ACL injuries. He played four years for the Cardinals, two as a tight end and two as a defensive lineman. At Ball State, Arnold played with the 1996 team that won the Mid-American Conference and went to the Las Vegas Bowl.
