  The Vermilion Catholic Eagles have a new head softball and wide receivers coach.
Jason Lopez joined the VC family in July.  Aside from coaching, he teaches seventh and eighth-grade Social Studies as well as high school English.
Lopez is a 1997 graduate of Rayne High School.  He then attended both UL-Lafayette and LSU before graduating with a bachelor’s degree in history from UL in 2001.  From there, Lopez went to law school.  That decision led to his first experience with Abbeville.

The Delcambre Panthers improved to 2-0 with a decisive 53-7 victory over Berchman’s on Thursday.

LAFAYETTE - The Abbeville Wildcats faced difficulties from the game’s start to the final minutes on Thursday.
AHS head coach Jonathan Zenon, still in search of his first win after 12 games, decided to attempt an onside kick to start the game. Unfortunately, the attempt was unsuccessful. As a result, Lafayette Renaissance Charter (LRC) gained possession of the ball at midfield and quickly scored one of their seven touchdowns, leading to a decisive 48-6 victory over the 0-2 Wildcats.
