Whittier seeking Varos’ replacements

The process for flying the soon-to-be-open positions of athletic director and boys basketball head coach at Whittier High School has begun, but no date for the actual opening has been announced.
Michael Varos’ resignation from both positions was announced Thursday.
Two names of possible candidates for the coaching position that have come quickly to the minds of posters here are Whittier’s girls basketball coach Willie Pittman and Pioneer High School boys coach Joey Mata.
Pittman, who led the Cardinals to back-to-back Del Rio League championship (sharing the 2008 title with California), said Friday morning that he is not interested in the boys position at this time.
Mata said Friday morning that his focus right now is 100 percent on his program at Pioneer, and that no one from Whittier, where he works in security, has contacted him about applying.
