Granton – Coach Novak (Leaving - 1975)

Granton’s basketball coach, Gary Novak, revealed this week that he will leave Granton at the close of the school year for a position as basketball coach at Seymour.

“We look upon this as a great opportunity,” Coach Novak told The Clark County Press.

Seymour is a Class A school.

Novak, who has a seven-year record of 81 wins and 62 losses, said that he is grateful for the seven years he has spent in Granton and that he is proud of the young men who have made up his Granton High School basketball teams.

“I will be moving closer to home,” said the Algoma native. “I like to fish for lake trout and Coho salmon, and perhaps now I’ll get a little better chance to do so.”
