When Flagler Palm Coast hires a new athletic director to replace Steve DeAugustino, who stepped down last week to return to coaching, the first item on the to-do list will be hiring two new basketball coaches.
Boys basketball coach Derrick Williams a month ago to move back to his home state of Alabama. Girls basketball coach Anthony Wagner has not been retained as a teacher at Buddy Taylor Middle School.
"I told him he won't be on our campus, so it might be in both our interests to get a fresh start," FPC Principal Bobby Bossardet said.
Bossardet said a goal of his is to bring the coaching staff on campus. Right now, several head coaches and assistants do not teach at the school and are not with the students during the school day.
Both Williams and Wagner coached the Bulldogs for two seasons.
Registration is open for the Bruce McNorton Football Camp. The free camp is scheduled for 5-7:30 p.m. Friday, June 9, at Daytona Municipal Stadium, 3917 LPGA Blvd.
Several current and former NFL and college players will provide instruction at the clinic. The camp aims to teach and improve football technique, teamwork and sportsmanship for youth ages 6 through high school.
McNorton played cornerback for the NFL's Detroit Lions from 1982 to 1990. The Daytona Beach native graduated from Spruce Creek High School in 1977 and played college football at NAIA school Georgetown College in Georgetown, Kentucky. He was a scout for the Pittsburgh Steelers from 2000 to 2022.
To register for the camp, go to www.CODB.us/Activities. For more information, go to CODB.us or call (386) 453-0317.
The Ormond Beach Lions Club held its annual Kentucky Derby party fundraiser on May 6 at St. James Church. The evening included food, beverages, games and a viewing of the 149th Kentucky Derby.
Two women also went home with prizes for the craziest and the prettiest hats. All proceeds will benefit services for the blind and hearing impaired in Volusia County.
