Derek Logue Named Head Football Coach at Heyworth

One of the hazards of a successful football program is that those on your staff will be wanted by other teams.

Such is the case with the Effingham Hearts with word that defensive coordinator Derek Logue has been hired as the varsity coach at Heyworth High School.

Logue has been at EHS for four years and has worked as Brett Hefner's assistant throughout Hefner's three years at Effingham.

Logue is a Normal Community High School graduate and played on a state championship team in 2006. He was hired on a unanimous vote by the Heyworth school board this week.

Heyworth is located south of Bloomington-Normal in McLean County, so it will be a homecoming of sorts for Logue.
