North Platte – Shelly Byrn has had a great run as head coach of the North Platte Saint Pats Irish and that has opened up new opportunities for her as the new head coach for the Ogallala Indians. Byrn will be replacing Steve Morgan, who was a coach for 45 years at Ogallala leading the Indians to 3 state titles in his time as head coach.

Byrn was very excited about the job saying: “This great opportunity presented itself. 17 years ago, the Irish gave us an opportunity and it was a great decision. Now, we have a great opportunity in Ogallala,”

Byrn said of replacing Morgan “We (Husband and I) are both very excited for this opportunity. I am humbled and honored to follow a great volleyball coach. Coach Morgan was a great coach and left big shoes to fill, but, hopefully I can add to the great history at Ogallala.”
