29 year old Former New Knoxville boys basketball coach Cole Fischbach has been ordered to finish the remaining 169 days of his suspended jail sentence after he admitted to Auglaize County Common Pleas Court Judge Frederick Pepple that he violated terms of his probation from a 2022 case. Fischbach admitted using Snapchat and other social media sites earlier this year. Fischbach was forbidden from doing so after he was convicted 2 years ago of two misdemeanor counts of disseminating matter harmful to juveniles. During his trial,  a 14-year-old New Knoxville female student testified that Fischbach kissed and groped her and sent her sexually explicit photos.
