Questions remain at Londonderry, Merrimack
Although offseason workouts are in full swing (or should be) and the start of the 2008 high school football season is quickly approaching, Londonderry and Merrimack are both still searching for a head coach.
In each case, the process has gone on longer than many expected.
Merrimack is looking to replace Rick Urda, who resigned in January. Tom Sawyer, the only head coach the Londonderry program has ever had, retired after the 2007 season.
Londonderry was expected to announced its decision in late March, but the discussion has been tabled at school board meetings twice, most recently Tuesday night. It's been reported that two coaches have turned down the Merrimack job. At one time Merrimack was among the top programs in the state, but the Tomahawks have qualifed for the playoffs once since 1995.
