Welcome home

Following the retirement and stellar career of Hall of Fame coach Mike Mischler '87, one of his former players and coordinators will now be in charge of the program. Mike Krahe '00 takes over the reigns of the Ramblers as he has been named the new head football coach.

Krahe enjoyed a huge amount of success as Prep’s defensive assistant and coordinator, a post he held for seven years from 2013-2019. Over that span, he helped Prep to three state championships and four appearances in the title game. The team amassed a 90-10 record over that span. Prior to his role with the Ramblers, Mike was also a defensive assistant/coordinator for Lake Erie College and Mercyhurst University for seven seasons.

A 2000 graduate of Cathedral Prep, Krahe concluded his high school playing career as a starter on the state runner-up team in 1999 that finished ranked ninth in the country. He would later play collegiately at Mercyhurst University.

“I am honored and humbled to be given this opportunity to be the head football coach at Cathedral Prep,” Krahe said. “I would like to thank the selection committee for entrusting me to carry on the rich traditions of Cathedral Prep football.”

From Cathedral Prep Vice President of Athletics, Bill Flanagan '87: “This was a position that was very attractive to a number of applicants. We were very fortunate to interview a solid group of candidates before selecting Mike Krahe. As a group, we feel confident in Mike’s abilities to relate to this age group and coach at this level. He is extremely passionate about football, teaching and his faith, making for a great mix moving forward.”

Krahe also feels it’s important to recognize his mentor in coaching. “I would like to thank Coach Mike Mischler for everything he has done to help me grow and develop as a coach and as a person. As a graduate, former player, and coach of Cathedral Prep, I feel blessed to be able to give back to the school that has helped make me the man I am today. I am excited and can’t wait to start working with the student-athletes and help them reach their full potential on and off the field.”

Congratulations to Carmelo McLaurin on commiting to Gannon university.
