— The search is on at Little Cypress-Mauriceville for a new athletic director and head football coach.
The LC-M CISD is looking to replace former AD Todd Moody.
The district posted the job on its school website and is taking applications through Jan. 19. The position will pay between $68,026 and $80, 596 for 226 working days.
Some requirements are a minimum of five years of successful teaching and coaching experience, a valid Texas teaching certificate. A Master’s degree from an accresdited college or university is preferred.
Todd Moody recently requested to be reassigned within the district and Superintendent Dr. Pauline Hargrove approved the request earlier this month.
Moody was 8-28 in his four seasons at LC-M and turned in an 0-8 record in 2008 with the Bears.
LC-M was outscored 337-71 for the season. Opponents averaged 399.0 yards a game on offense while the Bears averaged 189.0.
The Bears finished 1-9 in 2007 with a team high picked by The Orange Leader in its pre-season rankings. The Bears were outscored 278-132 that season.
The Bears’ most productive season in the Moody era came in 2006 in which they went 5-5 and almost grabbed the third-place playoff spot by finishing fourth. The Bears outscored their opposition 194-140 that season. LC-M went 4-3 in 20-4A play, posting shutout victories over Port Neches-Groves and Beaumont Ozen while also defeating Lumberton and Vidor.
In Moody’s first season in 2005 during the Hurricane Rita-shortened campaign, the Bears went 2-6.
Moody is the second head coach within District 20-4A to be reassigned since the end of the football season.
Matt Burnett recently was reassigned at Port Neches-Groves High School after leading the Indians to a 3-6 campaign in 2008 after going 8-4 in 2007 and sharing the district championship with Dayton and Lumberton.
