After over a decade of coaching at Southeast
Polk, Coach Dennis Muller resigns as head coach of the football team. Muller
has been coaching the Varsity football team for 13 years and has led the Rams
with the factory worker’s mentality.
“Southeast Polk has always been a very
aggressive team…” says Muller “…I feel that someone younger would have more
energy to coach the team.”
Muller resigned for several reasons including
health issues which led to cutting back on coaching because it had led to a lot
of stress on the longtime coach. Muller has been thinking about resigning for
the past couple of years because of the stress and family issues.
“My
brother is very ill and we don’t know how much longer he will be around so I
want to spend as much time with him as I possibly can,” says Muller.
“I
don’t think the traditions will change, I think it’s always been there. They
work hard, it is how they go about it that may change,” says Muller. The question is: Who will be the next head
coach for the Rams? The school has put out applications in an effort to find a
coach in time for next season.
Muller plans to still work at the school
teaching math, coaching girls track and doing some behind the scenes work for
the football team such as stadium renovations and helping out wherever he can.
