Maumee soccer coach Doug Everhart dies

Maumee High School soccer coach Doug Everhart.

Longtime Maumee High School boys soccer coach Doug Everhart died Tuesday night at his home. A cause has yet to be determined.

Mr. Everhart coached the Panthers for nearly 20 years, and also ran Maumee’s youth soccer programs.

“Doug was one of those people who liked to talk to everybody,” assistant coach Chris West said. “He had breakfast with all the referees, knew all the coaches in the area. He was just one of those larger than life personalities.”

The staff met with current players at the school Wednesday morning, and counselors are available. A candlelight vigil was held at Wednesday night at Rolf Park in Maumee.
