Beaufort High School found its next wrestling coach inside the building, and Battery Creek High School didn’t have to go outside the district for its next girls basketball coach.

Beaufort High last week named Coby Peeler the new head coach of the wrestling program, adding to his role on the football coaching staff. Peeler replaces Jake Sowers, who spent one season at the helm, and looks to put the Eagles on track to regaining the upper-hand in their crosstown rivalry with Battery Creek and competing with May River, Hilton Head, and a burgeoning Bluffton team in the reformed Region 7-4A.

The Dolphins tabbed longtime Bluffton Bobcats assistant Terria Scott-Aiken to take over a girls basketball program that endured a rebuilding season in its last under Lonnie Kluttz. Scott-Aiken, a native of Estill, was a key fixture on coach Lonnie Roberts’ bench during a successful tenure leading the Bobcats.
