MARSHFIELD — Marshfield High School is announcing the return of Matt Immerfall as the boys’ Head Hockey Coach. Immerfall is set to lead the team in the upcoming season.

Coach Immerfall previously served as head coach from 2006 to 2009. Over the past decade, he has remained involved with hockey at the youth level, demonstrating a dedication to developing young talent. A former Tiger hockey player himself from 1996 to 2000, Immerfall still holds two school records: 20 consecutive games with a point and two consecutive games with a hat trick.

In addition to his hockey expertise, Immerfall has also coached varsity baseball and continues to contribute as a defensive football coach for the Tigers. His multi-sport coaching experience brings a unique perspective and valuable skills to the hockey program.

Immerfall replaces Eric Bowman, who led the Tigers for the past 10 seasons. During Coach Bowman’s tenure, the team achieved notable success, including three straight 10-win seasons, the most at any point in school history. His 2018-19 team had an impressive record of 16-8-1.

“We are excited to welcome Coach Immerfall back to Marshfield High School. His leadership and dedication to the sport of hockey make him the right fit for our hockey program. We look forward to seeing our team thrive under his guidance,” said Athletic Director Nathan DeLany.

Coach Immerfall expressed his enthusiasm for rejoining the Tigers. “I am honored to return as the boys’ Head Hockey Coach at Marshfield High School,” he said. “This program has a special place in my heart, and I am eager to work with our talented players to achieve our goals and build for the future.”

Tigers usher in new era for boys’ track and field

Marshfield High School has promoted Ben Corcoran to the position of boys’ Track and Field Coach, replacing Coach Randy Hartwig after 30 seasons as a track coach at multiple levels within the district. Coach Corcoran brings a wealth of experience and a passion for mentoring student-athletes to his new role, promising a bright future for the Tigers.

Corcoran’s background includes 14 years of experience in track and field coaching, including two years as a head coach at Auburndale and 12 years as an assistant coach, the last 10 at MHS. His coaching expertise extends to football programs at both schools, where he has contributed 12 years of service.

Beyond the field, Corcoran is dedicated to education, currently teaching 5th grade at Madison Elementary School. He also supports the community by providing behind-the-wheel driver education.

“We are excited for Coach Corcoran’s new role,” said DeLany. “His experience and dedication to the holistic development of student-athletes make him an ideal fit for our track and field program. We are confident that he will inspire our athletes to reach their full potential.”

Coach Corcoran is eager to begin his tenure with the Tigers. “Becoming the Marshfield High School boys’ Track and Field Coach is an incredible and humbling opportunity,” he said. “I am committed to helping our student-athletes achieve their personal best, both on and off the field, just as my coaches did when I walked the halls at MHS. My philosophy centers on winning with integrity, fostering sportsmanship, and maintaining discipline.”
