A familiar face to some Apache fans has been named head football coach at Glenbrook.
Greg Tibbitt, who guided the program from 2012-13, has been hired as the program’s new leader. Glenbrook Athletic Director made the announcement Sunday.
Tibbitt replaces Reagan Smith, who ran the program the last two seasons.
Tibbitt compiled a record of 15-9 in his two seasons, including a 9-4 mark and MAIS semifinal appearance in 2013.
Tibbitt returns to Minden after serving as the Head Coach and Athletic Director at Green Forest High School in Arkansas where he led the program to its first Class 4A playoff berth in school history. Now, he’s set to bring his experience, leadership, and passion back to the Apaches.
“I am excited for the opportunity to return to Glenbrook as the new Head Football Coach and eager to build upon the rich tradition and recent successes of the Apache football program,” Tibbitt said in a press release.
“I will focus on continuing the momentum and working toward developing a championship-caliber program that will sustain success for years to come.”
“Coach Tibbitt originally brought me to Glenbrook in 2012, and our two seasons together were some of the best years of my 24-year career,” said Thurman.
“He built a culture of hard work and accountability, and every player who suited up for him respected and admired him. There’s no doubt he’ll instill that same standard of excellence in our program today. He’s not just coaching football—he’s developing young men who will leave Glenbrook better than they arrived.”
“Tibbit’s leadership was instrumental in Glenbrook’s previous success, and expectations are high for his return,” the press release stated. “His focus will be on instilling a winning mindset, fostering discipline, and building a culture of toughness and accountability—both on and off the field.”
