Open Job: Bethlehem

Artie Braden has stepped down as head coach.

That's 3 out of 4 schools in that district that are open now, if I am correct.

That would be correct. Brandon Johnson has also stepped down at Thomas Nelson and that opening is posted on the NC School district website, and Nelson Co. is currently in the process of interviewing applicants for its open boys' job.

Braden has had a great run in the 5th Region, with two successful stints at Bethlehem, as well as at NC and Washington Co. He started the program at John Hardin, taking the Bulldogs to the state tourney in 2006.

Is he going back to Nelson County?

Tough to say what his plans will be.

I do not think going back to Nelson County is a option

Probably so, but wouldn't that also rule out Thomas Nelson? Same school system, even though it makes sense given his roots in New Haven.

Longtime Bethlehem girls' coach Chris Taylor is taking over the boys' job. His son, Jacob, will be a senior and is top returning scorer/rebounder.
