A Superior High School business teacher and coach has been fired after district officials questioned his sexual relationship with a recent graduate.

The firing of 30-year-old Ryan Koenig came early Wednesday morning after a marathon meeting by the Superior Board of Education. The board voted 6-0 to cancel the contract of Koenig, who was the school's head football coach, girls' basketball coach and assistant track coach.

Koenig's lawyer confirmed that Koenig was in a sexual relationship with an 18-year-old girl who graduated in May. But Koenig says that relationship did not begin until five weeks after she graduated.

School officials also say Koenig had been questioned about comments made to current students and text messages sent to one student after 11 p.m.

My note: One thing I hate about news here is the vagueness in the way it is presented. If it is news then use some ink on it, don't be cheap with the ink or writing skills Mister Reporter Man. Reading is sposed to be interestin, not flat-liner hospital bed readin.
