Abuse Allegation Means Clayton Won't Rehire Assistant Coach Pat Sullivan
He coached cross country for the past two years, the St. Louis Beacon reported.
Former assistant coach Pat Sullivan will not be returning to that role amid an allegation he sexually assaulted a cheerleader in 1984, the St. Louis Beacon reported.
Quoting from the Beacon:
"At the , news of what (former Normandy High School cheerleader Goldie) Taylor had to say and the realization that Sullivan had been coaching track and cross country there for the past two years, for boys and girls, led to some swift action, said spokesman Chris Tennill."
Taylor first described the allegations, without naming Sullivan, on a TV show on MSNBC. She later identified him on her website.
