Call to Support Coach Williams Rally
by Kevin Wednesday, Mar. 08, 2006 at 9:42 PM



SOUTH HIGH STUDENTS & COACH WILLIAMS DESERVE BETTER

Contact City leaders and request they call for a full review of bias against South High School’s basketball team as well as a full review of the School Department’s response. The Worcester Public Schools also owe an apology to Coach Williams for their poor reaction and failure to provide support.

Key points:

  • This was not a post-game eruption, Coach Williams has repeatedly raised concerns within the school department about biased refereeing against South High.

  • Principal Maureen Ciccone was aware of the situation and attempted to address it earlier and immediately prior to Sunday’s game.

  • Concerns about the referees have previously been brought to the attention of Athletic Director John Pepi who promised that the two referees in question would not be scheduled for the South/Holy Name game.

  • Other coaches in the WPS system have also had concerns about the referees.
