Wilkinson steps down as Deer Creek’s head coach

Jay Wilkinson, after one season as Deer Creek’s head coach, has stepped down from that position. The move became official Friday, Wilkinson said.

The former Coweta head coach, Wilkinson went 2-8 in his lone season as the Antlers’ head coach. At Coweta, Wilkinson went 12-10 over two seasons with a playoff berth in both years.

Wilkinson had taken over the head-coaching vacancy at Deer Creek, which was left by Grant Gower when he joined the Oklahoma Baptist University staff.

Prior to Coweta, Wilkinson served as Broken Arrow’s offensive coordinator after being the head coach at Metro Christian during the 2006 and 2007 seasons.
