Martinsville girls - Departing Coach Dave Dorsett
MARTINSVILLE, Ind. -- (Updated 4/6) Coach Dorsett will not be back for a fourth season with the Arties. Last year was a brutal one for Martinsville, going 0-25. $10,000 stipend. 1st rnd intvs 5/1, 2nd rnd 5/7, name to board 5/7-5/10. (Updated 4/7) Good Varsity Clubber offers the following insight: Coach Dorsett resigned allegedly due to several complaining middle school parents. 0-25 for him and his staff was not an easy task to complete. A big red flag on this position as parents at Martinsville seem to be controlling the administration in the last couple years. Coach Dorsett moving on with his career looking for a new path. To make matters worse, the Cupboard is bare. Middle school players are not as good as they think they are. 7th grade went 7-18 and 8th grade was 12-8. None are likely to be able to make an immediate impact. Several teaching openings as teachers leaving Martinsville by the droves. Returning players made very little impact. Graduated two seniors who were the leading scorers for the Varsity averaging 19 points together of the 22.6 team average for the year. Rumor is that some players not playing next year due to the resignation of Coach Dorsett. This is a coaches beware job that might not get told by the upper management of the school.
