On Tuesday night’s school board meeting, Phil Sams was approved as Saucon Valley’s new head football coach.

Sams replaces Matt Evancho. The Panthers are coming off a 14-1 record in 2015.

Per Athletic Department:

The Saucon Valley Athletic Department is proud to announce the hiring of Phil Sams as its 13th Head Football Coach in program history.

Coach Sams served as an Assistant Coach for the Panthers for the last 9 years under Head Coach Matt Evancho, helping to guide Saucon Valley to two Eastern Conference Championships, two Colonial League Championships, and a District XI AA Championship.

Coach Sams’ high energy and passion for the game of football will undoubtedly allow for Saucon Valley to continue its success both on and off the field. Coach Sams has also served as Saucon Valley’s Head Baseball Coach for the last 4 years, guiding the Panthers to their first Colonial League Baseball Championship since 1979.
