The school confirmed that Coach Scheller is staying on as our coach. I am truly stunned by the outcome and know this belongs to all of you who stepped up to show your support. Let us keep looking out for one another as the season gets underway.

We, the parents and students of the Loyalsock boys soccer team, fully support Coach Ian Scheller and urge him to stay on in his role as our soccer coach. The team has enjoyed unprecedented success these past two seasons due to the exceptional leadership of Coach Scheller and the hard work that the students put in because of his leadership and their respect for him.
The harassment and bullying that Coach has been subjected to by a very small minority of parents is not representative of the majority and contradicts the spirit of the sport. We reject this behavior and will fully support the administration’s policies going forward to address and eradicate behavior that undermines the efforts of both the coach and the students.

I have been overwhelmed by the messages you keep sending about the impact Coach Scheller has had on the team. It is truly your dedication to fairness that keeps this momentum going and I am just happy to provide the space for these stories to be told.

Seeing this level of support for Coach Scheller is truly overwhelming. This momentum belongs entirely to the families who refused to let his reputation be defined by a few voices.

Coach has been a breath of fresh air since arriving on campus. He has taught these kids some very important lessons including the value of hard work. Kids today think playing time is a right and not a privilege. Those kids who receive playing because they earned the right to play, because of talent and more importantly hard work. Anyone who would suggest that the coach plays kids based on who there parents are should be ashamed.
Cosch scheller is as good as it gets for a high school coach. It would be tragic to lose him. He is everything loyalsock should want and expect in a coach. Our son is a better man having been coached my scheller. The problem people are not representative of who loyalsock parents are - a coaching job at loyalsock should be the best gig in town.
These boys will be forever changed by the work ethic, toughness, teamwork, respect and passion for the game that Coach Scheller instilled in them. We totally support him. #forevergrateful
Wtg Coach ! I know Kaleb is leaving at the end of this year but you have influenced him immensely! It would be a shame for future Loyalsock soccer students to miss out on your energy!!
Coach this team would not be where it is without your leadership. You have dedicated so much of your time and effort to this program and these boys. The admiration and respect these boys have for you shines through. We really hope that you will realize how much you mean to everyone and will reconsider your decision to stay. #gosock #loyalsockfamily
Coach Scheller is the best thing to happen to the high school boys soccer team.
Best coach ever !!

Ian has been amazing to work with. He was extremely flexible in setting up our youth nights for the younger players. I saw firsthand his commitment to his players as he ran summer practices for free. Nobody gets that these aren’t common things that coaches do. When you have a guy going the extra mile you should strive to keep him around, not run the guy off.
