Benedictine didn’t have to look far for its new football coach. Greg Lilly, the school’s director of admissions and a member of Dan Rolfe’s coaching staff, has been named to fill the vacancy left by Rolfe’s resignation. Rolfe is leaving to coach at Fort Defiance in Augusta County. “I am confident that his enthusiasm and hard work will be a positive experience for the Cadets who will play for him in the future,“ Benedictine Principal John McGinty said. “He has done an excellent job as an assistant coach while serving first as a social studies teacher and as director of admissions for the past three years.“
