Football coach accused of ‘inappropriate contact’ resigns

A Cerritos High School football coach has resigned after a player alleged that the coach twice engaged in "inappropriate contact" during practices this month, school officials said.

The complaint alleges that Chad Reed screamed at a player during a practice drill, used profanity and threw a football "straight at my face." In a second incident, the player alleged that Reed "hit me upside the head with my back turned to him."

Mary Sieu, deputy superintendent of the ABC Unified School District, told the Varsity Times Insider blog that the district conducted an internal investigation and met with Reed and the player's parents. She said Reed resigned as the football coach but will continue as a teacher.
