Unfortunately, the news coming out of Perryton, Texas isn't good. According to Ochiltree County Sheriff’s Office, Perryton Athletic Director Cole Underwood has been arrested for sexual assault of a child. He is accused of having relations with a child under the age of 17.
Underwood joined Perryton ISD in 2023 after coaching at Amarillo High School from 2017-2022.
Underwood is no longer listed on the Perryton ISD website and a job listing for Athletic Director and Head Football Coach has been posted.
This isn’t the first time a Perryton ISD teacher has been arrested for an improper relationship with a student.
On April 14, 2022, a warrant was issued for a former Perryton High School teacher, David Allan Drew. He was accused of an improper relationship with a 17-year-old student.
In 2016, a Perryton Junior High School teacher was accused of inappropriate behavior but no charges were officially filed.
