The article subject is not notable; fails WP:GNG and WP:SPORTBASIC. None of the sources in the article provide significant coverage. The coaching positions themselves do not confer notability; there needs to be at least one reliable source providing significant coverage (see SPORTBASIC).

- I don't know enough about those newspapers to say this with certainty, but this looked like relatively routine coverage to me. Maybe someone who knows these newspapers well can evaluate if I was wrong about that? Actualcpscm (talk) 11:34, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
- The only thing that matters here is whether those sources cover him "directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content" (SIGCOV's definition) - ROUTINE is the notability guideline for events. BeanieFan11 (talk) 15:37, 23 June 2023 (UTC)

- Searching... BeanieFan11 (talk) 15:52, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
- There's plenty of coverage from the Athol Daily News (1, 2, 3), plus The Recorder piece Alvaldi found (1). All I've found so far. BeanieFan11 (talk) 15:52, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
- Keep. Found another through ProQuest: "Woessner realizes dream; Falcons' defensive coach appointed to head position" from the Telegram & Gazette - at 400 words, its another piece of SIGCOV. Woessner looks like a GNG pass at this point. BeanieFan11 (talk) 15:59, 23 June 2023 (UTC)

- @Actualcpscm: Given that SIGCOV had now been discovered in three different newspapers, would you consider withdrawing this so that everyone can move on to other matters? Cbl62 (talk) 16:20, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
- Yeah, that seems reasonable. Actualcpscm (talk) 16:24, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
