Lantzy Out at Stoney Creek.

Written Wednesday November 15th at 10:05 PM

The Bob Lantzy era at Stoney Creek appears be over.

Citing a few sources, Lantzy has stepped down from the Cougars program effective immediately.

Stoney Creek was 5-13 in the two seasons under Lantzy. The Cougars finished 3-6 this season and 2-7 last season.

Lantzy came to Stoney Creek in 2016, after coaching 41 seasons at Utica Eisenhower from 1971-2011 in which he was Macomb County’s coach of the year four times, went to four State Championship games, and won 12 MAC titles with the Eagles.

Stoney Creek had a rough year on both sides of the football scoring 93 points which is 20 points lower than Lantzy’s first season in which they scored 113 points. Defensibly the Cougars improved but still allowed too many points though, Stoney Creek gave up 211 points which was less than the 243 points they allowed last season.

Lantzy departs Stoney Creek with a 309-168-1 record all time.

Thoughts.

It just didn’t work out at Stoney Creek for Lantzy.

It will be interesting to see where the Cougars go next season with their new coach. Stoney Creek will be very young but will return two quarterbacks in Frank Potenza and Peyton Youngblood along with lineman Jake Ropeta.
