From EWU FCS Champion to Rising High School Coaching Star
Greg Herd's playing days at Eastern Washington University (where he won an FCS national championship as a standout wide receiver) have evolved into an impressive coaching trajectory. After five seasons building Auburn Riverside into a powerhouse with two 3A NPSL championships, the 34-year-old just accepted the head coaching position at Eastlake High School. Herd combines on-field credibility from his college success and brief NFL stint with proven program-building acumen. His ability to develop winning cultures and elevate athletic programs makes him an intriguing addition to Washington's KingCo coaching fraternity—a coach who understands excellence at multiple levels.
