Online Extra: Pieroway returns, Soto out as baseball coach

By James Kelley

Pima Community College head men’s basketball coach Karl Pieroway will return to the school after a two week absence as a full time coach, along with women’s head basketball coach Todd Holthaus in a dramatic restructuring of the athletic department.

Executive Director of Athletics Edgar Soto will also step down as baseball head coach to focus on managing the athletic department.

Pieroway coached the Aztecs for two seasons, but resigned last month, citing the stress of balancing his workload as a full time middle school teacher with coaching duties.

“This is a great opportunity for me. I appreciate the chance to continue to work with the players in making our team one of the up-and-coming programs in the nation,” Pieroway said in a press release.
