With the resignation of Coach ‘Charlie’ Broderick, Leominster had to find a man capable of filling his important position. To find such a man was not an easy task. However, Leominster was very fortunate to procure the services of its present Director of Athletics and football coach. Leon “Huck” Hannigan was born in Leominster and attended Leominster High School. He was graduated from Worcester Academy and Springfield College, and soon afterwards entered the Army where he was a successful foot- ball coach for two years. Following this he attended graduate school at Springfield and was assistant football coach. Between 1957 and 1958, he was a teacher-coach at Newburyport, Massachusetts. From 1958 to 1964, he taught at Vernon Verona Sherrill School in New York and also served as Director of Athletics and Physical Education. His duties included head football and baseball coach. During his six year stay, his teams were very successful. After being appointed to his position in Leominster, Coach Hannigan stated his thoughts on L.H.S.: “I’m very happy to be back in Leominster, and I’m very pleased with the attitude of the boys. Leominster has had a tradition of outstanding athletic performance, and we would hope to continue in that tradition.”
