Actuary "Ezekial 25:17 - The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequites of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he that shepherds the weak from the valley of darkness for he is truly his brother's keeper, and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers, and you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Wake up boy and girls, Politics have no place in high school athletics. Who would transfer a winning coach right before the season begins and more importantly why? Once the Article is written it will be published and all of the research connecting the dots to the ones who leverage bond finances and campaign finances for a position that can only be earned.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
LULAC Council No. 1 and the American GI Forum will hold a press conference to address concerns regarding the forced transfer of Mary Carroll High School Volleyball Head Coach Doris Elizondo; who holds 149 wins and 5 losses as well as 5 consecutive District Championships and 2 undefeated District seasons while at Carroll High School .
Certain members of the Carroll High School Boosters have pressured Carroll High School Administrators to transfer Ms. Elizondo for reasons that have not been made clear or were either not presented to Ms. Elizondo in a timely fashion; allowing her to address or correct them.
LULAC Council No. 1 and the American GI Forum feel that Ms. Elizondo has been denied due process within the CCISD administration and therefore, her civil rights are being violated both by the school's administrators and those members of the Carroll High School Boosters who have targeted her for removal.
The press conference will be held in front of Mary Carroll High School (on Tiger Lane side in front of the school offices) at 4:00 pm on Wednesday, May 7, 2008 .

Carroll High School head volleyball coach Doris Elizondo currently is not being reassigned, according to one school official. Yet a spokesperson for Elizondo said Wednesday the coach still fears she could be.
Nearly 100 people gathered across the street from Carroll on Wednesday afternoon in support of Elizondo. Many of those were current Tigers volleyball players decked out in "We want Coach E to Stay" T-shirts and holding up banners in support of the coach.
Carroll High School principal Bobby Templeton said Wednesday that "as of today, no final decision has been reached by this school district concerning the reassignment of Coach Elizondo."
"Coach Elizondo, and all other coaches and administrators, are fully aware that reassignment of job duties is a possibility," Templeton added. "Since this is a personnel issue, we cannot comment on specific details. However, issues have been raised by parents, staff and community members concerning her actions, which prompted my investigation into these matters."
Corpus Christi Independent School District superintendent Scott Elliff, CCISD athletic director Brenda Marshall, and Carroll High School athletic director Terry Morris were unavailable for comment Wednesday.
Elizondo referred all questions about her coaching status Wednesday to League of United Latin American Citizens Council No. 1 education chairperson Susie Luna-Saldana.
Luna-Saldana led Wednesday's rally for Elizondo and played a tape recording for those in attendance in which she says that Morris, who she said knew he was being taped, told Elizondo that she would be reassigned in May.
"Unfortunately this is happening because there are certain parents that want coach Elizondo moved," Luna-Saldana said. "Coach Elizondo has never been written up for anything. Up to this point, there have never been any concerns brought to her attention. When you connect the dots, the idea is that (a few Carroll volleyball parents') children are not getting enough playing time."
Carroll High School volleyball Booster Club president Terrie Steen, the mother of Carroll junior volleyball player Melanie Steen,said it will be unfortunate if Elizondo leaves in May because it could hurt the team.
"My daughter wants (coach Elizondo) to come back and I want what my daughter wants and what's best for the team," Terrie Steen said. "If this particular team is going to be successful with Elizondo at this point, then that's what we need to do because this team's on a roll -- just let them play volleyball."
Carroll junior volleyball player Erica Humbach said Elizondo told her and the other Tigers volleyball players that she wants to come back and coach the team next season.
Humbach said it won't sit well with many of Carroll's volleyball players if Elizondo is replaced next season.
"Bringing someone in (to coach the team) that is completely new and who doesn't know us at all -- that will not end up well for us," Humbach said. "We're fighting for coach Elizondo and she knows it. We love her and she loves us."
In six seasons at Carroll, Elizondo has led the Tigers to five straight district titles in Class 5A, including six straight playoff appearances. She's posted a 133-53 coaching record at Carroll and has a 187-115 career volleyball coaching record in 13 seasons.
