HEAD OF HARVARD-WESTLAKE
FOOTBALL PROGRAM
Scot Ruggles, Harvard-Westlake’s Head
Football Coach, is looking forward to
competing in this year’s Angelus league as
defending co-champions. The focus of Coach
Ruggles and his dedicated staff is to continue
to teach the players the fundamental skills and
instill the work ethic that is required to achieve
success at the highest level.
Ruggles has great experience as a coach at
both the high school, collegiate and
professional level. He started his coaching
career at the University of New Hampshire
where he worked under offensive coordinator
Chip Kelly. Ruggles next moved to Marshall
University, helping them win the GMAC Bowl
and achieve a top 20 ranking in the NCAA
polls. After spending a season with the
Colorado Crush of the Arena Football League,
he returned to the college ranks, with stints at
Central Connecticut State University,
University of Missouri-Rolla and Harvard
University. At the high school level, Ruggles
has worked at St. Genevieve and St. Anthony.
In 2011, Ruggles joined the Wolverine football
program as the offensive coordinator directing
a unit that averaged over 350 yards and 31
points per game. Now, as the program’s Head
Coach Ruggles is inspired by the responsibility
of improving the performance of the entire
program.
