Mullen High looks to strengthen athletics with two new coaches

Mullen High School leadership is taking the opportunity to improve the alignment of the high school’s athletic programs with the overall mission of the high school. 
Over the course of the past few weeks, an evaluation of Mr. Vince Massey’s leadership as Athletic Director in service to our student athletes, our coaches, our booster clubs and our wider community was completed and provides an excellent opportunity for learning and growth. Mr. Massey and I are reflecting on and discussing those evaluations as a first step in planning for continued excellence in our athletic program. Mr. Massey’s ongoing goals for the Athletic Program are mission based, student centered and appropriately ambitious. 
We have also been presented with the opportunity to fill two head coaching vacancies and are eager to begin this process. The football and softball programs are seeking new coaches. Mullen affirms our ongoing commitment to find the best fits in these roles in service of our student athletes.
  • Mullen appreciates the service of our football and softball coaches. 
  • Mullen leadership is taking the opportunity to strengthen the entire athletics program to ensure all areas are consistent with Lasallian teachings
  • Any departure of faculty, coaches, school leaders gives leadership a chance to strengthen the team with individuals committed to the traditions of Lasallian mission.
  • Leadership is more focused than ever that every aspect of life at Mullen builds on an individual’s formation with God and with one another.
