Staples High School girls soccer coach Lee Brown told a team meeting tonight that he is resigning to take a collegiate coaching job.
In an e-mail to soccer families, Brown, 34, said, “For some time now I have been working closely with several collegiate teams and, as a result, have been offered an assistant’s job at the NCAA Division 1 level.
“An opportunity like this is very rare and after careful consideration I accepted the offer to advance my coaching career.”
Brown, who has been the Staples girls coach only for a year, said he and the Staples athletic director have been actively searching for suitable candidates and hope to have a replacement named shortly.
