Huss also will look for a new girls varsity head basketball coach for the Bulldogs, as Debra Jones resigned her position after four seasons.

Jones, who cited the need to deal with some “health issues,” stepped down after a 9-11 season.

“Coach Dede [Jones] was very passionate about Scott High School, especially our athletic department,” Huss said. “She attended many of our sporting events and, when we were in a pinch, she coached our softball team as well. She is a very giving person and will be missed by the Scott community.”

Prior to taking the head coaching position, Jones served as a Bulldogs assistant. She works in the health insurance field.
