Coach Rood has over 25 years of experience in coaching at the high school level.

Coach Rood began his 3rd year as the Leopards Head Coach (2008 season) with a 10-10 overall record and two second place finishes in the Keystone Conference.

Rood took over a team that under a previous coach had only eight wins in three years, including an 0-10 mark in 2005.


During his time as an assistant at Belle Vernon Area, Coach Rood has been a part of staffs that have captured 9 conference championships, made six appearances in the WPIAL AAA semi-finals, and 3 trips to the WPIAL Championship (winning in 1995 and losing in 1996 & 1999).


In 2002, Rood stepped away from coaching and joined the then NSN Sports Network as a color commentator. He also worked for MSA Sports.


Coach Rood served as the Head Coach of the Pittsburgh Passion (semi-professional women's football team)  in 2004 -  guiding them to a 6-2 record in the NWFA. 

Additionally, in 2006 and 2007 he served as an offensive and defensive consultant for the Passion, as they compiled a 21-1 record and captured the 2007 NWFA National Championship.
