The mother of a student who was tackled by a football coach while running onto the field during a game earlier this month at Wilmot (Wisconsin) High School now wants to see that coach lose his job.
According to Kenosha News — Rebecca Langel wants the high school to take immediate action against the assistant coach who clotheslined her son after he and another student ran out onto the field during a game.
After putting that student down on the ground, the coach could be seen dragging that student by his shirt for a few yards.
“This is a personnel issue; therefore, we cannot comment,” district administrator Dan Kopp said. “I would like you to consider the following: What would your questions have been if the person running towards the backs of our players during a live play had been carrying a weapon?”
Mason Langel received a five-day suspension from school that he served last week and a $200 disorderly conduct ticket.
The assistant coach has since been identified as Ken Mulhollon, who is a former police chief.
