LONGVIEW, Texas — Gladewater ISD has announced head football coach John Berry is leaving the program.

Berry confirmed to CBS19's Reagan Roy he will take over as the defensive coordinator for the Longview Lobos.

Berry was previously a member of the LHS coaching staff from 2000-2010, where he served as the associate head coach and co-defensive coordinator.

He left for Gladewater in 2010 and was named the Bears' HC in 2014 following the departure of Jerrod Baugh.

In his six years as the HC/AD at Gladewater, Berry racked up an overall record of 47-25 and made the playoffs in five of six seasons, according to the Longview News-Journal.

GISD says Scott Clower will take over as interim athletic director, while Jermaine Lewis will serve as interim head coach.
