Shake-up in Pencader Athletics or Just confusion?

It's been a confusing year for athletics at Pencader. 

On August 13th, field hockey parents were informed that the school would not field a team until 2013.  In early September, football parents turned out in mass at a school board meeting b/c of particulary troubling rumor - if the school leader was let go, there would be no football this year.  That rumor was put to rest by the board. Last week the News Journal ran a story about the Football coach after having caught him inflating at least one player's stats to near state breaking records.

Yesterday, Pencader updated its Titan Sports website. This page, http://www.titanssports.com/Page9377.aspx, indicates that Mr. Townsend is the Athletic Director.  However, this page, http://www.titanssports.com/ contains a letter from the Athletic Director and welcome signed by school guidance counselor Todd Heller, who is apparently doing double duty as the Interim A.D.-

Confused yet?  I am.

Maybe Townsend gave up AD position because of Harrison-Dixon's actions? Didn't want to be aligned with that? Don't know. Townsend is a math teacher who teaches statistics so he should have been a super resource for Dixon to get those stats right. If that is what happened then Townsend did the right thing and I applaud his action.

why the heck hasn't the board called an emergency meeting and removed Dixon from the coaching position is this going to be a drawn out ordeal like the Lewis situation?

Brett Townsend is listed as assistant AD now with Heller as the AD - http://www.titanssports.com/Page9377.aspx

Because Dixon is down with the board and on the right side. They all drink together and pass out on couches at each other's homes when they can. As long as you don't question things you can just stay low and to the wall. If you have an opinion then you are ushered out the door as were the "fired five" last week!
