Coach accused of misconduct resigns
Coach Kent Whitman resigned his coaching position Thursday after an investigation started Tuesday in his conduct with a 15 year-old girl. He worked at Genoa High School as the Cross Country Coach. He is barred from attending any school activities or contact with students. He also teaches at Oak Harbor Middle School, but it is unclear if he is on administration leave pending this investigation, as Brenton-Caroll-Salem Superintendent could not be reached for comment. Police Chief Shultze is helping Job and Family Services with the investigation.
