KEARNEY, Neb. - Kearney High is turning to a pair of assistant coaches to lead its softball program in 2025.

The school announced Tuesday that Kellee Vornhagen and Josh Schmeits will be interim co-head coaches in the fall.

The duo will take over the Bearcats program following the resignation of Steve Stutzman earlier this month.

Vornhagen currently serves as pitching coach for the Bearcats and previously was a pitching coach at the University of Nebraska-Kearney.

Schmeits worked as an assistant at Kearney High for the last two years and has also been a head coach at the club level.
