I am excited to be coaching and doing what I love. My assistant coaches and I are excited about the group of girls returning and coming up.  We saw so much love and dedication to volleyball over the JO season and working with the girls over the summer.  We are looking forward to a fun season!

I am extremely thrilled to be a part of the Pillager Husky Nation!!  The season can't come soon enough.  This will be my 24th year coaching and I can honestly say I've never been more excited about a season!  Our goal this year will be to put a team on the field that makes the school and community proud!

Terry Hollingsworth a Pillager HS alumnus (1987) has coached for Pillager in a variety of sports since 1992. He has helped with Cross Country program since its beginning in 2001 and became head coach in 2005.  

FFA is a student-lead organization that prepares members for premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education. FFA develops members’ potential and helps them discover their talent through hands-on experiences, which give members the tools to achieve real-world success. Members are future chemists, veterinarians, government officials, entrepreneurs, bankers, international business leaders, teachers and premier professionals in many career fields.

Members compete in Career Development Events like Horse Evaluation, Food Science and Technology, Fish and Wildlife Management, and in Leadership Development Events like Prepared Public Speaking and Parliamentary Procedure. They also plan and execute chapter events such as activities during National FFA Week in February, a petting zoo in the spring, and many more!

Advisor Audrey Schleper is the Agricultural Education teacher here at Pillager. Her favorite part of advising the chapter is watching members develop new skills, confidence, and a passion for all things FFA.

Entering my second season as head coach, we look to build on last year as we return 10 players that either started on varsity or played meaningful innings during the 2022 season. We continue to see more and more kids signing up to play baseball at all levels. We look forward to where this season takes up as we continue to get better each day! GO HUSKIES!
