Is this the same guy a few years back that wanted cuts enforced for frosh boys soccer… ?
When did he move from Somerville?
He enforced cuts right up until he stopped coaching. There was a big dust up a few years ago when he cut two seniors who had been on the team for three years.
For freshman girls soccer he had a team and a half. He carried a “practice squad” of 8 to 10 girls. Different standards for different genders?
Title 9-itis?
Terrible when at Somerville- no patience for those who struggled with athletics.
