Principal Cheryl Lawton and assistant track coaches sought to assure parents and students shaken by the recent arrest of head coach Greg Marshall, who is accused of sexually assaulting two underage students in the mid-2000s. Marshall, a prominent figure in the Bay Area track scene, would have started his third season with Branham’s track team. He was arrested on Jan. 25 after allegations surfaced from when he coached at Valley Christian. He’s been placed on unpaid leave while the investigation is under way. Instead of hitting the field to start off the season, several dozen students and parents met in a portable near the field to ask questions about the transition. Practice has continued under the supervision of the other coaches. Lawton also told athletes that therapy services would be available for them on campus. The district has already begun looking for a replacement head coach. Students are encouraged to contact Detective Mike O’Grady or Detective Sgt. Sean Pierce of the San Jose Police Department at 408-537-1397 if they have any information regarding the investigation.
