Villa out as Coach, AD
From the Wicked Local Walpole website:
Danny Villa has resigned his positions as Walpole High School head football coach, athletic director and teacher, according to a press release from the office of the superintendent sent out Wednesday evening.
Superintendent Lincoln Lynch said he had received a “credible parent complaint related to the conduct of Mr. Daniel Villa.”
Villa resigned when faced with those allegations in an early morning meeting Tuesday, according to Lynch.
In an interview Wednesday night, Lynch said he would not be releasing the details of the complaint at this time.
The resignation was effective immediately.
Villa had denied rumors that he had resigned in the Daily News Transcript yesterday. He told the Transcript that he hopes to be the head coach of the Rebels next year but “you never know what the next day presents itself.”
It now appears he had resigned at the time he made those statements.
Villa has been the high school’s head football coach for the past eight seasons. The Rebels under Villa completed an undefeated season this year with a Division 2 Super Bowl win on Dec. 6 over Mansfield.
A guard in the National Football League from 1987 to 1998, Villa spent most of his career with the Patriots.
Villa could not be reached for comment Wednesday.
“The Walpole Public schools will do everything in its power to prevent this matter from interfering with the educational process, including, but not limited to, the school setting and related activities,” wrote Lynch in the release.
