Former assistant coach Chris Minerd was hired as California High School's girls basketball coach during Wednesday's school board meeting. Minerd replaces Cindy Dunlevy.
Minerd's coaching played a role in Beth-Center winning the Section 5-AA girls title this year. He's coached the current group of Bulldogs seniors since they were in sixth grade at various levels, including travel leagues and AAU.
California finished 12-9 overall in 2009-10 and qualified for the WPIAL Class A playoffs with an 8-4 record in Section 3. The Trojans, led by all-district players Kristina Wagner and Morgan Moluski, defeated Monessen in the regular season. California's season ended with a loss to Fort Cherry in the first round of the WPIAL playoffs.

So the Cal Trojan assistant coach was responsible for BC winning the section??? What about the BC coaches- did they have anything to do with it? Especially when the head coach has the kids from 7th grade until they graduate!
Good Luck At CAL! PS - Call the BC coaches if you need some help!
Anyone that was familar with the BC team this past year knows that Coach Minerd built that team when those group of girls were playing in elementary and summer ball. Dont hate BC cause we took your best girls b-ball coach.
Ouch! This must have struck a nerve.
Obviously you did not read the article or took it out of context. The article says he "played a role".It did not say "he was responsible". Anyone who knows anything about BC basketball knows that is true.
BC has a knack of letting good coaches get away. Joe Kuhns @ Waynesburg,(Football and Track) Jan Haiden @ JM,(Football and Track) Jim Lane @ Carmichaels, Bob Kennedy @ Bentworth, Gary Amos Bentworth (Soccer and basketball) are just a few. Thanks...
