Ron Faust, who coached Washington High School’s boys basketball program to two state championships, ended a five-year retirement when he was hired in late March to succeed Mark Gaither, who had resigned.
Faust was Wash High’s coach from 1981-2009 and compiled a record of 518-192. Along with the two PIAA Class AA titles, Faust has guided Wash High to four WPIAL championships, including three straight from 1984-86.
Gaither resigned shortly after the 2013-14 season, during which the Prexies had a 17-7 record and defeated Burrell in the WPIAL playoffs before losing to Summit Academy. Gaither had a 76-42 record in five seasons at Washington.
