VYPE Coaches Corner: Parish Episcopal Football HC Daniel Novakov; TAPPS-D1 State Recap
Dec 10, 2025

The victory not only secured another championship, but marked the program’s sixth title in the last seven years — a feat that underscores the dynasty Parish has quietly, yet emphatically, built.
Head coach Daniel Novakov reflects on the team’s pathway back to the crown, its significance, and more.
