Reed steps down as softball head coach
Jamie Reed ’09 announced she is stepping down as head softball coach at Pius X.
Reed has accepted a position at the University of Mary in Bismarck, North Dakota as assistant softball coach and Coordinator of Athletic Compliance and Operations.
“What I enjoyed most about being a coach at Pius X is being a mentor to the girls and coaching staff,” Reed said. “I loved creating a positive, fun, and competitive environment that allowed the girls to learn, grow, and play at their best.”
After serving as an assistant coach at her alma mater for many years, served as the head coach last season. The team reached the district championship game, breaking 15 records throughout the season.
“I’d like to thank Jamie Reed for all she has done for the softball program and its players over the last several years both as a player and coach,” Pius X Athletic Director Greg Lesiak said. “She has shown herself to be a great role model and coach for her players.”
Charf wraps up career as baseball head coach
Troy Charf ’92 announced he is stepping down as the head baseball coach at Pius X, wrapping up a 17-year career with a 264-157 record. His teams qualified for state nine times, won three state titles and finished runners-up twice. Charf also served for many years prior as an assistant baseball coach.
“I enjoyed always learning about the game and how to teach it,” Charf said. “But probably what I appreciate the most are the relationships developed and friendships made.”
Charf will continue teaching and coaching football at Pius X, and spend more time with his family, including attending more of his kids’ games.
“I’d like to extend our thanks to Coach Charf for all he’s done for Pius X’s baseball program,” Pius X Athletic Director Greg Lesiak said. “His time spent for the betterment of the program, while upholding the values of our school, produced great teams and young men.
