Dundalk High School promoted defensive coordinator Sean Sandora to head football coach to fill the position left vacant when Mike Downes resigned following the end of the season.

Sandora, a standout football player at Salisbury University, was a three-year starter at defensive back as well as a two-year team captain.

After finishing his undergraduate work, Sandora spent time as a graduate assistant at Salisbury. He then became the defensive coordinator at Mt. Hebron High School before accepting a teaching and football coaching position at Dundalk under Downes.

 “Sean has shown us that he’s a role model for student athletes at Dundalk, and a leader of young men,” said Owl Athletic Director Justin Nash. “We look forward to having him build a championship program on the field and in the classroom.”
