Rob Swartz, the Golden Valley High School head football coach since its inception two years ago, has resigned. Swartz cited personal reasons for his decision.

"This has nothing to do with the kids or the program," Swartz said. "I love these kids. This is a personal decision." Several options exist for Swartz, including staying at the school as a teacher. Swartz led the Grizzlies to a 2-8 season in 2005, including two wins in their final three games, in the team’s first year at the varsity level. The Grizzlies are scheduled to join the Foothill League this fall.
