The new head of the Wildcats is a familiar one for the Dan River Community as long-time Varsity Associate Head Coach, Ben Elliott, moves up a chair. He's been a part of the coaching staff for around 15 years, serving under both Kenneth Murphy and former coach/current Cave Spring HC Jacob Gruse. Elliott also played for the Wildcats back in the early-to-mid 80s.
