Eckler named Head Football Coach at Canton High

Coach Jeff Eckler

Nobody has been a part of the Canton Bulldog Football coaching staff for more time over the past 30 years than Coach Jeff Eckler.  And today, the Canton High School Athletic Department is thrilled to announce that he will be our new Head Varsity Football Coach. 

Eckler, a member of Canton High School's class of 1991, was a standout on the gridiron back in his playing days, while serving as Bulldog team captain. He went on to get his degree in Physical Education at Bridgewater State College before beginning a career in teaching and coaching.

After earning his degree at BSC, he returned to his roots almost immediately, taking a teaching position at the Galvin Middle School, where he has been motivating middle schoolers to be active, fit and healthy ever since. 

His first coaching gig was also in Canton as he joined the Bulldog sideline staff in several roles from 1994-2001. These included freshmen coach, quarterbacks coach, secondary coach and defensive coordinator. He then moved on to expand his football circle to include stints as defensive coordinator at both Oliver Ames High School and Milton High School. He returned to Canton High in 2011 as defensive coordinator when Coach Dave Bohane returned as head coach. He has really defined Bulldog defensive football ever since then. 

Coach Eckler coaching up the 'dogs

CHS Athletic Director Danny Erickson had this to say about the appointment of Eckler-

"Jeff bleeds Bulldog Football. I have had the pleasure of working with him for the past 15 years. During that time, he has grown into a true master coach. The combination of being a phenomenal football mind, a great, caring person and someone who truly appreciates the tradition of Canton Football, really makes Jeff the perfect choice to be our next coach."

Coach Eckler had this to say upon his appointment- 

"I'm very excited to lead the CHS football program and continue to coach in the community that I love.  Looking forward to a year of growth, teamwork and success."

Eckler takes over a program that is coming off of two very successful seasons.  Also interesting to note is that he will be the answer to the trivia question- "Who was the coach of the Canton Bulldogs Football team for the 100th anniversary Thanksgiving Day game with Stoughton?" That history-making matchup will be happening this November.
