She didn't make quite as big of a splash with her departure from her high school soccer coaching position as another coach did recently (ahem), but Lincoln Southeast coach Linda Wilson's retirement (no relation) is still pretty big news. She was an asset to the local soccer community.
I actually tried out for Coach Wilson's team when I was a freshman. But can you believe it, she cut me! That was back in the dark ages when freshman had to make the varsity squad or they couldn't play high school ball. After that I tried out for the track squad and, well, I had a much more successful track career than I ever would have had as a soccer player. So, thanks for cutting me, Coach Wilson! (No, really!)
Now I'm curious who her replacement will be. There were rumors going around this season that one of her former players was in a good position to take over, should she ever leave. Hmm.
