It may have flown under the radar but Ted Clarke stepped down at Gladstone before the season got underway back in March. Darren Spence, who had yet to coach his first game at Azusa resigned earlier this year and Sergio Villasenor and Matt Villasenor resigned as co-head coaches at Sierra Vista after the final spring game.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mark Verti was surprisingly let go at Rancho Cucamonga and as was Josh Cronkite at Chino Hills.
