Football coach White leaves Gorman, joins Sooners' staff

REVIEW-JOURNAL

Bishop Gorman High School on Thursday announced the resignation of football coach Dave White.

White, who coached the Gaels for four seasons, is leaving to take a job as an offensive graduate assistant at Oklahoma.

White said he would initially work with the offensive line and could eventually spend more time coaching the tight ends. White was a tight end at UNLV.

"It's going to be a great opportunity," said White, who posted a 30-12 record in his four seasons at Gorman. "But it's tough to leave a great program and a lot of friendships."

White said he is looking forward to the opportunity to work under Sooners head coach Bob Stoops.

"I've said all along I'm either here (at Gorman) or I'm going to Oklahoma," White said. "He offered me the position two years ago and I turned it down. Now this is a time in my life and the opportunity is there again. Bob sees something in me, and I've got to take advantage of it."

Gorman has had several players go on to play in college during White's time as head coach, including Ryan Reynolds and DeMarco Murray, who both are at Oklahoma.

RECORD-SETTING ROUND -- Boulder City boys golfer Dusty Craddock had a round Thursday that pros would be proud of.

Craddock shot 10-under-par 62 at Boulder Creek Golf Course in Boulder City to set a new state record. The previous record, according to the Nevada Interscholastic Activities Association record book, was 6 under set by Galena's Matt Kinsinger in 2003.
