Archer City has called on a pair of familiar faces to lead the boys and girls basketball programs following the resignation of Andrew Morris and retirement from coaching from Amy Huseman. During the Monday, April 25, Archer City ISD school board meeting, Josh Castles, a current Wildcat assistant and Archer City grad, was picked to lead the boys’ program while Tyler Owen returns to where he got his coaching start to lead the girls program.
