Deubrook School Board Wins Coach Dispute

A circuit judge has upheld the Deubrook School Boards decision to rehire a basketball coach.

The ruling comes after parents of some Deubrook High School boys basketball players took the unusual step of going to court over a dispute with the coach.

The disagreement involves several issues, including questions about whether coach Darwin Hofer was giving some team members enough playing time.

After the school board decided to rehire Hofer as coach, the parents went to court, but Circuit Judge David Gienapp has sided with the school board.
