Monday night the Lake-Lehman school board voted 9-0 to appoint Jerry Gilsky head football coach. He replaces Carl Kern who resigned in late December. Kern’s record in four years was 15-26.
This was the second time Jerry Gilsky applied for the head-coaching job at Lake-Lehman. He applied the last time the job was open but lost it to Kern.
Gilsky spent 10 of his 11 years coaching football, basketball and track at Crestwood High School. One season he was an assistant line coach for George Curry at Wyoming Valley West.
Gilsky was head junior high coach at Crestwood. He won two conference titles and his team had a 24-game winning streak.
Last season he coached Tight ends and Linebackers at Crestwood.

Tough duty. If Lake-Lehman’s current batch of kids can’t be motivated by a Lake-Lehman alum who was a 2 year starter for Woody Hayes’ Ohio State Buckeyes in their halcyon days, it’ll be tough duty for this guy too. Looks like Lehman will continue to be doormats to the Dallas Mountaineers for the foreseeable future. I think the “Old Shoe” will be with Dallas for a long time.
