Jay Flanagan is going to experience life down the shore in the wintertime.
The longtime boys’ basketball coach in Burlington County was approved for the same position at Lower Cape May High School by the board of education on Wednesday.
Flanagan, who spends his summers in North Wildwood, recently retired as a teacher and coach at Rancocas Valley after two decades. He led the Red Devils to a 15-14 record last winter, raising his win total to 350 with the RV program in 20 years.
“I am excited for this new opportunity,” Flanagan said in an email on Wednesday night. “I never thought I would leave RV but things have changed there with a new administration. I had a great 20 years there and will truly miss it.
“I cannot thank my former players who stayed loyal to the program over the years enough for their support. I am still so close to many of them. The next two years will be very strong for RV basketball. The returning players are great young men with a lot of promise. I wish them nothing but the best and I will surely be one of their biggest fans from afar.
