Snohomish High School girls soccer coach resigns

Dan Pingrey has resigned after 10 seasons as Snohomish High School’s girls soccer coach.

Pingrey, who this past season guided the Panthers to the Class 4A state quarterfinals, said he submitted his resignation Wednesday because of a Washington Interscholastic Activities Association rule that restricts high school coaches from coaching club teams.

Pingrey coaches his daughter, Brooke, on the Snohomish United U-12 squad.

Pingrey said he plans to continue coaching the Snohomish High boys team, which he guided to 4A state championships in 2000 and 2006.
