Mike Wilson Reaches 100 North Husky Victories!


CLICK HERE FOR PRESS RELEASE

In the history of Evansville football, few men have achieved the milestone of 100 varsity football victories at a single school.  The feat has only been achieved ten times in one hundred years.  As North Coach Mike Wilson nears that historic mark, we thought to include a chart of the city of Evansville's greatest coaches and Coach Wilson's place amongst them.

Having already won 52 games at Olney's East Richland High before coming to Evansville North in 1989, the Husky head coach has already eclipsed 150 career victories.

Throughout his journey from 1989 to the present, Coach Wilson has had Assistant Coach Marty Ohlsen at his side.  Together the two have worked to build the program from a team that won six games in the seven seasons prior to their arrival into a powerhouse that has won FIVE Sectional championships along with Regional, Semi-State, SIAC, and City Titles.

Please help us extend our congratulations to Coach Wilson and Coach Ohlsen as they reach this historic milestone.
