An Iowa high school girls basketball program has a new head coach.

Iowa City Liberty High School announced the hiring of Derek Girling as the new head girls basketball coach in a social media post. Girling replaces Jamie Brandt, who led the Lightning to a 15-8 record this past season and a Class 5A regional runner-up finish.

“Liberty High School is excited to announce Derek Girling as the new Head Girls Basketball Coach, pending board approval,” the Liberty Lightning Athletics X (formerly known as Twitter) account posted. “Coaching Girling brings 10 years of coaching experience (with him to Iowa City Liberty).”

Incredibly excited to be joining the Liberty community. Go Bolts!…
