RUNNING EVENTS
Stephen Lotief has been the Kaplan head football coach for the last 11 years and his teams have been to the playoffs each year.
For the last three days, the rumor floating around was that long-time Kaplan football coach Stephen “Tank” Lotief was out as the head football coach and wrestling coach at Kaplan High.
Late Thursday afternoon, Kaplan Principal Patricia Thibodeaux confirmed the rumor by releasing a typed statement.

LEROY - The North Vermilion Patriots find themselves on a four-game winning streak.
NV sports a 7-2 record, and in all seven wins, the Patriots scored a lot of runs. They have put up numbers like 18 runs, 17 runs, 15 runs, 12 runs and 10 runs on the scoreboard.
“We are a young team but we have a lot of guys that can handle the bat, and we have really good team speed that’s helped us to put pressure on the teams that we play,” said NV head coach Jeremy Trahan.
