MONROE — Monroe High School has decided not to renew head basketball coach Tyson Horner’s contract for the 2017-18 season, according to athletic director Mark Henderson.

High-school coaching contracts are issued on a year-to-year basis.

Horner took over as head coach in 2013 and guided Monroe to a 43-49 record in his four seasons at the helm, including a 29-27 record in Wesco 4A play.

Monroe went 17-7 overall and 10-4 in conference play this season, tying for second place in Wesco 4A. The Bearcats came within one win of the state regionals for the second time in three years.
