He’s movin’ on up.

Former Coupeville football coach Jon Atkins is now the Athletic Director at Mariner High School in Everett.

That’s a 4A institution which plays in Wesco.

Atkins, who is also an Assistant Principal at Mariner, made the job change public on Facebook Friday afternoon.

“Athletics has been a huge part of my life and now I get to serve in my dream job!” he wrote.

Atkins, who was also a girls’ basketball coach in Oak Harbor, worked the gridiron sidelines at Coupeville High School from 2016-2017.

He will be best remembered by Wolf Nation for posting a perfect record against archrival South Whidbey, leading Coupeville to back-to-back wins in the annual Bucket Game.
