CHESTERFIELD—Marlboro County’s recently hired athletic director Matt Quinn is now the new head football coach at Chesterfield High School according to a post on the school’s Facebook page.

The announcement was made Wednesday afternoon.

Quinn was hired at the athletic director in Marlboro County in March, taking the place of former Bulldogs head football coach and athletic director Quin McCollum.

At the time of his hiring, Quinn said that he was bringing a positive atmosphere and positive relationships to the athletic program in the county.

“Creating opportunities for our student-athletes in every single sport, to exceed expectations on and off the field. Putting as many of our student-athletes into college athletics as possible, SAT, ACT prep. Anything we can do to push them to the next level we’re going to do it,” Quinn said in March.

Quinn had coached football at North Augusta High School, and Westwood High School in Blythewood and was named Region 4-AAAA Coach of the Year in 2021.

It is not clear when Quinn’s last day with the Marlboro County School District was or who will be the new athletic director. A message was left with the district for further information.
