LaDow to take over boys volleyball program

Jeff LaDow has been named the new head boys volleyball coach for the Berkshire Badgers, pending board of education approval. LaDow is familiar with the boys volleyball program, as he has been an assistant in the program for the past two seasons. In his first year as an assistant, the Badgers were co-champs of the Northeast Ohio Boys Volleyball League and finished as a regional runner up in the OHSAA tournament.

LaDow, an elementary teacher at Berkshire, will take over a program that only graduates one senior and will have a core of upperclassmen returning for the 2027 spring season. He becomes the 2nd head coach in Berkshire history, following his predecessor Tim Percic, who built the program from the ground up.
