NAVASOTA A.D. CASEY DACUS ANNOUNCES RESIGNATION

Navasota ISD announced the resignation of Athletic Director and Head Football Coach, Casey Dacus, on their Facebook Page earlier this (Friday) morning.

Coach Dacus has been the Athletic Director and Head Football Coach at Navasota since 2018 and led the Rattlers football program for the last six seasons, to a record of 36-31.

“I’ve been here for six years now and feel like it’s time for someone else to take the reins and inject some new blood into the athletic program,” Dacus said in the post. “I want to thank Navasota ISD for the opportunity to ‘come home’ to coach. While we didn’t win as many games as we would have liked, I am proud of the work that was done and our accomplishments over the last six years.”

Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Stu Musick, said in the post, “We would like to express our sincere thanks and appreciation to Coach Dacus for his service to our Navasota ISD community and to the Navasota Rattler Athletic Program over the past six years. Coach Dacus has led the Rattler program with integrity, class, and high expectations. We wish Coach Dacus and his family nothing but the best in whatever their next chapter is and know that they will continue to build upon a strong foundation.”

The search for the next Navasota ISD Athletic Director/Head Football Coach will begin immediately.

During this time of transition, Assistant AD, Coach Tommy Gates, will serve as Interim/Acting Athletic Director through the end of the search process until the next AD/HFC can begin in the Spring.
