Retired 4-decade BC head football coach Larry Wilcox was sworn-in as Atchison City Commissioner following his selection to fill a vacancy Feb. 22, 2022.
(KAIR)--A former Atchison City Commissioner has returned to the role of leadership, appointed last week to fill an unexpired term on the Atchison City Commission.
Larry Wilcox, retired, longtime head football coach at Benedictine College, served on the City Commission until December of last year, having been appointed to fill an unexpired term on the Commission in February, 2022. Wilcox chose not run for reelection in last November's General Election.
However, it was shortly after the City Commission-complete with new leadership selected during that election, including incumbent Lisa Moody-had organized for the new year that Moody stepped down, resigning from the seat she was to hold through December 6, 2027.
Following Moody's resignation, the City of Atchison began the search for her replacement, with a total of six applicant's, including that of Wilcox, received.
The Commission, during its meeting of January 16, reviewed the applicants, ultimately selecting Wilcox to fill the unexpired term.
Following his selection, Wilcox was sworn in, and seated, on the Commission to begin his term.
