Team USA plays the International squad in 2012 International Bowl on Wednesday February 1, 2012 at 7 p.m. at the Kelly Reeves Athletic Complex in Round Rock.
This will be the third annual International Bowl against high school aged football players from four continents on the International Federation of American Football (IFAF).
Fifty U.S. high school seniors will make up Team USA. A national team exemption granted by the NCAA allows high school seniors to play for USA Football and not have their participation count as one of two permitted all-star game appearances.
The International Bowl is a national team competition, not an all-star game.
TEAM USA TEXAS COACHES
CRAIG CHESSHER, Round Rock Stony Point will be the defensive line coach.
Chessher took over at Stony Point in 2004, leading his team to a 49-8 record (.860) the last four seasons (59-38 overall). He led Stony Point to Texas’ Class 5A Division I state semifinals in 2008, 2009 and 2010. Chessher also was the assistant head coach and defensive coordinator of Galena Park North Shore in 2003, helping lead them to the Class 5A Division I state title.
CHARLIE WARD, Houston Westbury Christian will be the wide receivers coach.
In four seasons at Westbury Christian, Ward is 17-23, including a 5-6 mark in 2011. The former Florida State quarterback won the national championship and Heisman Trophy in 1993 before embarking on an 11 year career in the NBA. Ward took over Westbury Christian in 2008 after a year as an assistant coach.
L.D. WILLIAMS, Austin High will be the offensive line coach.
Williams has been a high school football coach for 23 years, most recently as head coach at Austin High School, where he led the Maroons to back to back playoff appearances.
