MONROE, Utah-Tuesday evening, longtime South Sevier girls basketball head coach Stuart Hepworth confirmed, via his Facebook account, that he is resigning from his current position.
Hepworth, who led the Rams to a state title in February against Judge Memorial, has been a head coach or assistant for four state titles on the sidelines for South Sevier, commencing his head coaching career in 2009-10.
Hepworth stated, that with “mixed emotions,” he has stepped down from this position and will accept a new job at the high school as vice principal.
Hepworth cited his rich experiences as the Rams’ head coach in engaging with “great kids” and confirmed that while he will still have those opportunities, the interactions will change.
In closing, Hepworth said he has been lucky to have a proverbial storybook ending to his coaching career with the dramatic win against Judge in the 3-A state title game at Salt Lake Community College.
This was his first state title as the Rams’ head coach.
Hepworth concludes his coaching career with a combined record of 45-7 (.865) over the course of the past two seasons and an all-time record of 145-114 (.559).
