Rade served as assistant football coach and defensive coordinator at Wood River High School in Idaho with head football coach, Mike Glenn, before taking the job of athletic and activities director in 2007—first working for a year-and-a-half as assistant AD under athletic director Ron Martinez.

He is believed to be one of the longest-serving Wood River High athletic and activity directors, possibly the longest with nine full years on the director job. In 2009, Rade was named 4th District 5A/4A “Athletic Director of the Year.” He submitted his letter of resignation to Hailey high school principal John Pearce on Thursday, July 14. Rade’s resignation was effective July 18.
