Miamisburg chooses former Edgewood coach Steve Channell as football coach
Longtime former Edgewood coach Steve Channell was chosen to be Miamisburg High School’s new head football on Thursday. His hiring is expected to be approved by the board of education at its Feb. 16 regular meeting.
Channell replaces Tim Lewis who resigned after the Vikings went 2-8 last season.
Channell’s hiring is the third of four head coach openings in the Greater Western Ohio Conference following the end of last season. Scot Brewer has succeeded Steve Nolan at Troy and most recently Chris Newman was hired at West Carrollton following the resignation of Rob Berger.
Springfield has yet to name a head coach after Adam Taylor announced that he would not be back after one season.
Channell was Edgewood’s head coach for 21 mostly successful seasons and compiled a 152-79 record. His teams won 11 conference titles and advanced to the playoffs 10 times. Edgewood was a state finalist in 2003 and played in state semifinals three other seasons.
He was an assistant at Middletown last season.

I played at Miamisburg and I played under two different head coaches and 4 different offenses and 4 different defenses. I hope for nothing but the best for Miamisburg football and I hope the players that are there respect the man and all he has accomplished.
