St. Luke’s Episcopal (Fla.) football team will be looking for a new head coach for the upcoming 2026 season.

According to a AL.com report, the Wildcats are mutually parting ways with head football coach Joe Gilmore after two seasons at the helm. Gilmore through two seasons at St. Luke’s Episcopal went 7-13, leading the Wildcats to a finished 3-7 record from this past 2025 season.
