BASKETBALL COACHES OUT – Rene Hanebutt, girls’ head basketball coach at Decatur High School, will not have her contract renewed for next season. Assistant coach Jeri Larrison, who served as the junior varsity and freshman team coach, has also stepped down. The Decatur school board approved both moves at its meeting last night. Hanebutt was in her third season at DHS where she led the Lady Eagles to the District 7-3A championship this year. According to three DHS students, Hanebutt told the players in a team meeting that she was forced out of the position. Athletic Director Kyle Story did not return phone calls before Update went to press.
