St. Patrick taps proven winner Glasscock as its football coach
St. Patrick announced that Oscar Glasscock has been named head coach for the Fighting Irish football program.
Glasscock has served in a variety of coaching roles throughout his career, most recently as the head coach at Cullman High School in Cullman, Alabama.
While at Cullman, Glasscock led the program to four consecutive playoff appearances and an overall record of 28-17. Throughout his career, Glasscock has coached over 20 Division I signees, two former NFL players, and two former CFL players.
“I am excited to welcome Coach Glasscock to the Mississippi Gulf Coast,” incoming Principal Paul Knapstein said. “Coach Glasscock has been extremely successful, both as a defensive coordinator and as a head coach. His vision of what a football program is aligns with our vision. Coach also lives his Catholic faith and will be instrumental in helping form intentional disciples. The energy, passion, expertise, and excitement Coach Glasscock will bring is the perfect mix of talents to pick up where Coach Bailey left off.”
Trey Bailey, interim principal, states, “I echo Mr. Knapstein’s sentiments. Coach Glasscock will be a wonderful addition to our school community, and I look forward to watching him develop our football program further. His attributes are top notch, and he is a seamless fit for St. Patrick Catholic High School.”
