The hire is pending board approval. <\/p>\n\n\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Slayton was the offensive coordinator at LA Wilson last year and the running backs coach at Sierra Vista under Sergio Villasenor and Matt Villasenor the two years prior. He also coached with the Villasenors at LA Wilson in 2018 and began his coaching career at LA Wilson, his alma mater, in 2009.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Slayton graduated in 1996 from LA Wilson as the school&#8217;s all-time leading rusher. He had his number retired by the school.  Slayton went on to play college football at Minnesota State. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m ready to take the next chapter in my life,&#8221; Slayton said. &#8220;I&#8217;m looking forward to it. We have a lot of talented players returning.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Slayton indicated that he will be co-coaching with Robert Darling, who will be his right-hand man, but that he will be the head coach. Slayton will be bringing several coaches with him from the Sierra Vista staff. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re getting the band back together. It&#8217;s going to be mostly the same staff from those Sierra Vista teams. We&#8217;re going to bring the same intensity that those teams had,&#8221; Slayton said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Slayton takes over for Matt Castaneda who stepped down at the end of the season after four years to take the head coaching job at Diamond Bar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last year the Panthers went 6-6 overall and advanced to the second round of the CIF Division 12 Playoffs before losing to Woodbridge.   <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Tim Peterson (Rosemead) &#8211; Arlin Slayton was announced as the new head football coach at Rosemead Monday Athletic Director Marc Harisay confirmed.
