Conley out at Southfield Arts and Tech.

Written Saturday February 27th at 10:45 AM

The Warriors will have a new varsity football coach this fall.

Southfield Arts and Tech Coach Tim Conley stepped down earlier this month confirmed by MIPrepZone's Scott Burnstein.

Conley coached for 16 years in Southfield. He won five district titles and got Southfield to two Division Two final fours. Conley oversaw the merger between Southfield and Southfield Lathrup to become Southfield Arts and Tech in 2016.

Conley was known for sending his kids on to Division One colleges but his record on the field has really struggled since the two schools merged.

Whoever the new coach will be will have a difficult task ahead of them being in the Red and seeing the likes of Clarkston, Lake Orion, West Bloomfield, Stoney Creek, and Oxford on a consistent basis. They do have a quarterback in Isiah Marshall to work with next season but there are a ton of questions everywhere else.

Program strength is a question mark next season at Southfield Arts and Tech. We'll see what happens.

My Thoughts

Conley did well in his 16 years at Southfield. He put kids in Division One Colleges but his record on the field was different. The Warriors have struggled on the field going 14-20 since 2017 which included a 1-3 record against Lake Orion and a 2-4 record against Clarkston.

It will be interesting to see who takes over at Southfield Arts and Tech next season.
