Sheridan takes over as Tiverton head football coach

Middle School teacher had run Tigers' offensive line

Posted

Former Tigers offensive line coach Dillon Sheridan has been named the new head football coach at Tiverton High School, stepping in following the retirement last year of long-time head coach Bob Murray.

Sheridan, a science teacher at Tiverton Middle School, was recently selected by his peers as the school's teacher of the year. He is a University of Rhode Island graduate and played for the Rhody Rams while in college.

Football runs in his veins. His father was drafted by the New York Giants, and he admires NFL coaches Bob Wylie and Andy Reid's coaching style.
