Covenant coach who beat Dallas Academy 100-0 is fired 06:50 PM CST on Sunday, January 25, 2009 By BARRY HORN / The Dallas Morning News [email protected] The Covenant School fired its girls’ basketball coach Sunday, the same day he distributed an e-mail and posted on a Web site that he disagreed with the school’s headmaster as well as the school’s chairman of the board, who have publicly apologized for Covenant’s 100-0 victory over Dallas Academy. Kyle Queal, Covenant’s head of school, said former coach Micah Grimes “now only represents himself.†Queal said he could not answer if the firing was a direct result of his e-mail and posting.

My values and my beliefs would not allow me to run up the score on any opponent, and it will not allow me to apologize for a wide-margin victory when my girls played with honor and integrity.†On its Web site Thursday, the school posted a statement that said it “regrets the incident of January 13 and the outcome of the game with the Dallas Academy Varsity Girls Basketball team. It is shameful and an embarrassment that this happened. This clearly does not reflect a Christ-like and honorable approach to competition.†It was signed by Kyle Queal, the head of school and Todd Doshier, board chair. Grimes did not immediately respond to repeated email requests for an interview. But his email and Web site post concluded, “I believe in the lessons that sports teach us.

Covenant has been in the national spotlight since Thursday when The Dallas Morning News published a story about its 100-point shutout victory over Dallas Academy back on Jan. 13. Dallas Academy coaches and administrators say Covenant kept the pressure on until it reached 100 points midway through the fourth quarter. Sunday’s email was the first public communication from Grimes since he emailed The News on Wednesday night. In the original email that was copied to Queal and athletic director Brice Helton, Grimes called scoring 100 points “unfortunate.†“It just happened,†he wrote. “Please know Covenant intended no harm against them. I see this as a real learning opportunity, so we can prevent this from happening in the future.†In Sunday’s email, which didn’t appear to be copied to school officials, Grimes said his team stopped applying full-court defensive pressure after the score reached 25-0 three minutes into the game, dropped into a relatively benign zone defense and began resting his starters in favor of his three bench players. Dallas Academy coach Andrew Lott agreed Covenant stopped pressing but returned with an alternate press later in the game. “I am 100 percent sure,†said Lott, who estimated his team was able to get off “seven shots†all game. “He’s entitled to his opinion,†Lott said. “If you ask 10 people about it you might get 10 different answers.†Lott said his team did not videotape the Jan. 13 game hosted by Covenant but he is certain Covenant did as there was a camera was set up near the Dallas Academy bench. “Maybe we could look at the tape,†Lott said. The story has captured national and international attention. When posted on dallasnews.com, the first-day story attracted 665,000 page views worldwide, an enormous number for a story on a local private school girls’ basketball game. E-mails have flooded in from across the country and as far away as China and Thailand commenting on the story. Most have questioned the motives of Covenant’s coach for “running up†the score. But some have defended the coach for allowing his girls to play to their potential. None have blamed the Covenant players. Dallas Academy girls, portrayed as lovable losers on the court but winners in life for their attitude after the loss, have been showered with praise nationally. They’ve were on ABC and CBS network morning shows on Saturday and are scheduled to make a repeat appearance on ABC’s Good Morning America on Monday as well as their Today show debut.
