In this episode of our Fall Sports Spotlight Series, we sit down with the Head Coach Matt Wilson of the Elyria High Pioneer Football program as he heads into his second season at the helm—energized, focused and excited about the direction the program is heading. With summer training in full swing, he talks about how a strong, structured sports performance program is already paying off, setting athletes up for a competitive and confident start to the season.
Coach Wilson shares what’s ahead for the team this fall, how offseason efforts translate into on-field success, and how players can still get involved. He also shines a light on the community-driven aspects of the program, including an annual mini-camp where young football players train and connect with the varsity players—a day designed to inspire, engage, and grow interest in the sport!
But his impact doesn’t stop with Friday nights. Coach Wilson also took on the challenge of launching the district’s first-ever Girls Flag Football Team this past spring, and he’s passionate about the opportunities opening up in this fast-growing sport.
Whether you're a parent, player or Pioneer football fan, this behind-the-scenes look at the program and its leadership will keep you riveted!
It's a great day to be a Pioneer! Thanks for listening. Find Elyria Schools on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube!
