BUTTE — Montana Tech football coach Chuck Morrell will also serve as the school’s athletic director.
Morrell takes over for Dave Lau, who resigned from the position for family reasons after serving for about three months.
Tech Chancellor Don Blackketter said Thursday that Morrell’s experience in collegiate athletics, his dedication to Montana Tech and its student athletes and his commitment to the Butte community make him the perfect choice.
Morrell was named Tech’s football coach in December 2010. His teams have posted a 15-22 record, with eight of those wins coming in 2012 when Tech won the Frontier Conference title and a spot in the NAIA playoffs.
