Brian Weinrich is a head coach once again.
Weinrich accepted the head coaching position at Newport High School Thursday, according to Newport athletic director Robert Haire.
He had stepped down as head coach at Highlands in December after seven seasons at the helm and 20 as an assistant coach. Weinrich was 51-36 in seven seasons. In his first season, 2014, the Bluebirds went 13-2 and won the 4A state championship.

After leaving Highlands, Weinrich was named defensive coordinator at reigning 2A state champion Beechwood. He left that position to take the Newport job.
He replaces Joe Wynn, who had been head coach at Newport for the past three seasons. Wynn became the head coach at Mason County High School in Maysville, Ky., on May 19.
Wynn had a record of 18-13 with the Wildcats including 8-4 in 2019.
