IRMO, SC (WIS) - Former Irmo High School coach Bob Hanna is out as head football coach at West Brunswick High School in North Carolina after just one season, according to a release from the school district.

Brunswick County Schools released a statement on Thursday saying they "felt the program needed to go in a different direction."

"We wish Coach Hanna all the best and appreciate his service to WBHS," said Principal Brock Ahrens."We are looking for the right fit for our program and are excited to begin the search for our next head football coach."

Hanna went 5-7 at the school as coach.

Hanna, meanwhile, said the split was not by mutual agreement.
