Brooks Haack Named Memorial High School Head Football Coach

A Katy native and former Division I quarterback, Haack brings a lifetime of football knowledge, a championship mindset, and a deep love for the game to his new role. But before he was dialing up plays on the sideline, he was already drawing Xs and Os in his childhood bedroom.“I don’t even know if Brooks had a choice to do anything else,” his mom said with a laugh.
Haack arrives at Memorial fresh off helping Richmond Randle win a 5A Division II state championship, where he served as assistant head coach and offensive coordinator. The Lions went 14-0, toppling powerhouse South Oak Cliffin an instant classic.
Haack’s love for football started long before he ever suited up for Katy High School. His mom, Leslie Haack, remembers catching five-year-old Brooks huddled over a play school desk, furiously scribbling football plays after his first season of flag football.
“It’s about more than just football—it’s about building young leaders and making this program a source of pride for the entire community,” Haack said.
Born to Coach: A Football Journey That Started Early
Haack is ready to bring his fire, passion, and competitive drive to Memorial. And if his past success is any indication, the Mustangs are in for an exciting ride.
The Mustangs finished 4-7 last season, but with a state championship coach at the helm and a renewed energy in the locker room, expectations are high for a quick turnaround.
Paige Hershey, Spring Branch ISD’s Executive Director of Athletics, believes the Mustangs found the right leader.
He plans to introduce community-driven initiatives, including:
A Standout Career at Katy High School
Memorial High School didn’t have to look far for its next football coach. The Mustangs are turning the page to an exciting new era with the hiring of Brooks Haack as their new head football coach and campus athletic director.
Memorial football is entering a new era, and Haack is embracing the challenge of leading a proud program into the future.
— Spring Branch ISD (@SBISD) January 30, 2025
Championship Pedigree: From Randle to Memorial
“There’s always been a great sense of pride in this community for Memorial football,” Haack said. “I’m excited to build on that tradition and take this program to new heights.”
Football was the family business. His dad, Kalum Haack, was a legendary softball coach at Katy High School for 26 years, winning two state titles. His mom built Cinco Ranch’s softball program from scratch before moving into administration. Competitive fire ran in the bloodline, and Brooks was raised in a home where sports—and coaching—were a way of life.
Now, he’s ready to bring that same work ethic, innovation, and energy to Memorial.
Building a New Culture at Memorial
As a kid, Haack dressed as a coach for every Halloween, clipboard in hand, mimicking his dad’s fiery dugout antics. And when it came time for his own playing career, he didn’t disappoint.
So, did his family always know he’d grow up to be a coach?
- Recruitment Nights to connect athletes with college programs
- Youth Camps to develop the next generation of Mustangs
- “Breakfast with Moms” and “Decals with Dads” events to bring families into the program
What made the win even more remarkable? The Lions were in just their third year as a varsity program. Haack and the coaching staff had built the program from the ground up, starting with unloading weight room equipment off 18-wheelers in the program’s infancy to lifting a state championship trophy just a few years later.
A Fresh Start for Memorial Football
“All those hours we put in, all that work—it bonded us for life,” Haack said. “We knew what it took to get there.”
Even back in high school, Haack had a connection to Memorial High School. Before Katy ISD expanded, Memorial was a district rival, and Haack remembers facing off against some of the best Mustang teams of the era.
At Katy High School, Haack was more than just a coach’s kid—he was a winner. He led the Tigers to a 27-3 record as a starting quarterback, showcasing the leadership and competitiveness that would define his career. His play earned him a Division I scholarship to Louisiana-Lafayette, where he played quarterback before transitioning into coaching.

While football success is a priority, Haack is just as focused on building relationships and creating a championship culture off the field.
“Coach Haack understands what it takes to build a successful program—both on and off the field,” Hershey said. “He’s committed to building a championship culture at Memorial.”

On Wednesday, June 4, sheriffs and sheriffs’ personnel across North Carolina joined together for the North Carolina Sheriff’s Association’s annual Legislative Day at the General Assembly.
Jackie Rogers, the Lenoir County Sheriff, says he is proud to be able to attend the event.
This Legislative Day has been a valuable opportunity to meet with other sheriffs as well as legislators in the General Assembly,” Sheriff Rogers said. “Decisions made in the General Assembly can impact the safety of North Carolinians in Lenoir County and beyond, so I am grateful to our legislators for being willing to meet with us in person to discuss ways we can make all our citizens safer.
Sheriffs and their command staff from across the state are invited to join NCSA staff and lobbyists at the General Assembly each year during the legislative session for this event. Legislative Day gives sheriffs the chance to meet with their legislators one-on-one to discuss concerns they are facing with public safety in their counties.
The Association is proud to host this event to facilitate important conversations between sheriffs and their legislators,” Iredell County Sheriff and NCSA Chairman Darren Campbell said. “We all need to work together to improve public safety for everyone.
Officials say sheriffs discussed bills this year, related to the following topics:
- Increasing recruitment and retention of law enforcement officers
- Increasing punishments for fentanyl-related drug crimes
- Tougher penalties for the sale of unregulated hemp products to children
- Making it unlawful for scammers to impersonate government officials on telephone calls
The sheriffs and their personnel who attended began the day with a meeting at the NCSA headquarters in Raleigh before making their way to the General Assembly to attend scheduled meetings with legislators.
As sheriffs, it is important for us to maintain relationships with our legislators in the General Assembly,” Chatham County Sheriff and NCSA President Mike Roberson said. “We all look forward to the opportunity to speak to our legislators face-to-face to tell them about the real issues we are seeing in our communities and hearing about from our constituents.

The Legislature got a lot right this session. Here are the highlights
The 89th Legislature, which ended Monday, considered more than 8,700 bills during its 140-day session. While most bills die during the legislative process, lawmakers managed to pass 1,212 of them, and Gov. Greg Abbott already has signed a few.

The 89th Legislature, which ended Monday, considered more than 8,700 bills during its 140-day session. While most bills die during the legislative process, lawmakers managed to pass 1,212 of them, and Gov. Greg Abbott already has signed a few. We advocated for the bills below and believe they will make Texas safer, more livable, more humane or better able to meet future needs. Public education is so critical — and so costly — we will cover education-related bills in a separate editorial. Meanwhile, we are pleased the following bills passed:
Bail reform (Senate Joint Resolution 5 and Senate Bill 9): Texas voters will decide in November whether to amend the state Constitution to deny bail to people accused of the most serious violent offenses.
Under current law, judges can deny bail only for capital murder cases and few other circumstances. Lawmakers want voters to consider giving judges the power to deny bail to people charged with murder, aggravated assault causing serious bodily injury, aggravated kidnapping, aggravated sexual assault, aggravated robbery, indecency with a child and human trafficking. According to the legislation, judges would have to deny bail if prosecutors show that granting cash bail would fail to “reasonably ensure” the safety of the public or that bail would be insufficient to stop the suspect from skipping court.
We have heard police complain for years that they arrest dangerous people only to see them out on the street again soon after. The Legislature finally got this proposed constitutional amendment passed after years of roadblocks. Now it’s in voters’ hands.
Another important bail bill that made it across the finish line was Senate Bill 9, which will allow prosecutors to request that district judges review bail amounts before a case is formally charged.
Lottery reform (Senate Bill 3070): Introduced late in the session, this bill rolled multiple reforms of the Texas Lottery Commission into a single bill. It dissolved the scandal-plagued lottery commission but saved the lottery itself, moving it and charitable bingo under the oversight of the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation.
Lawmakers also are returning the lottery to its roots: re-emphasizing the requirement that people buy tickets in person, not over the phone or via the internet. They also banned bulk ticket purchases and so-called courier services. The bill requires an ahead-of-schedule Sunset Advisory Commission performance audit in 2029 to determine whether the lottery should continue.
Property tax exemptions: Both homeowners and small-business owners received significant increases in their property tax exemptions. The required exemption for most homeowners will rise from $100,000 to $140,000. Disabled homeowners and those age 65 or older would receive an additional $60,000 break, giving them a total discount of $200,000 off the taxable value of their homes. Voters will have to approve both measures during a constitutional referendum in November. Business owners will receive a big hike in their inventory, or business personal property, tax exemption. It jumps from $2,500 to $125,000.
Abortion exceptions: When lawmakers passed their near-total abortion ban a few years ago, they allowed almost no exceptions. Doctors were prohibited from performing abortions even in cases of rape or incest. The only “medically necessary” exception was to save the life of the mother. Since then, multiple women who experienced miscarriages or other complications have described how their lives and health were jeopardized when they were denied abortions because of a lack of clarity in the original law. Senate Bill 31 states that abortions are allowed if a woman is at risk of death or “substantial impairment of a major bodily function” and clarifies that the risk does not have to be imminent for doctors to act.
Water infrastructure (Senate Bill 7 and House Joint Resolution 7): If voters approve these measures in November, Texas will dedicate $1 billion per year starting in fiscal year 2027 to ensuring the state’s future water supply. Population growth, aging pipes and dams, water-dependent industries such as fracking and data centers, and extreme weather are all putting stress on the state’s water resources. The funding would total $20 billion, but the public policy group Texas 2036 has calculated a secure water supply would require a $150-plus billion investment by 2050. We may quibble with some of the details in the bill, but overall, it’s a good start on what will be an increasingly important issue.
Affordable housing: Lawmakers considered a variety of bills to address the state’s housing shortage. We supported a measure that allows property owners in urban areas to develop mixed-use residential or multifamily projects in areas zoned commercial, retail, warehouse or other limited categories without a formal zoning change. Another bars municipalities in urban areas from requiring new subdivision lots to be larger than 3,000 square feet; the goal is to lower the cost of new homes by allowing them to be built on smaller lots.
Dementia research: A priority for Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, lawmakers passed Senate Bill 5 to establish the Dementia Prevention and Research Institute of Texas. Voters will need to pass a related constitutional amendment in November to create the institute and provide $3 billion in funding over the next 10 years.
Trey’s Law (Senate Bill 835): This bill voids nondisclosure agreements (NDAs) in legal settlements that silence victims of child sexual abuse. The law is named for Dallas native Trey Carlock, who took his own life after he suffered years of sexual abuse at a Christian camp. He had sued the camp but was required to sign an NDA as part of the legal settlement.
