Jackson Kane has been announced as the new varsity girls basketball coach at Macomb High School. Kane was the head coach of the West Central Heat varsity girls basketball team during the COVID-19 shortened season this past winter in his head coaching career debut. He began his coaching career with five straight wins on his way to a (7-3) overall record for the Heat. During his first season at West Central, Kane helped four players earn Lincoln Trail Conference All-Conference accolades.

Kane takes over the Bomber program from Zach Keene, who resigned in June to spend more time with his family. Keene, who had been the head coach at Macomb since the 2012-2013 school year, led the Carthage Blue Girls to a 3rd place finish in the Class A state tournament in 2005, accrued  244 career wins and was an IBCA Regional Coach of the Year four times.

Kane stopped by the AM 1330/FM 94.1 WRAM Morning Show and talked about his time with West Central and expressed his excitement about taking over the Lady Bomber girls basketball program.
