Ponder's Boxell leaves Lions for college gig

It is official.
Ponder head coach Doug Boxell has left the Lions to coach at the University of the Ozarks, according to Josh Peppas, the university's sports information director.

The University of the Ozarks is located in Clarksville, Arkansas and is a Division III school.

Peppas said Boxell signed the contract yesterday after interviewing for the job on Monday.

This is a nice promotion for Boxell. Not a lot of coaches jump from the 2A high school basketball level to the college ranks.

Boxell was at Ponder for 13 years and led it to back-to-back state championships in 2008 and 2009.

I am still waiting to get a call back from Mr. Boxell. I'll have more on this as soon as I hear from the coach.
