"Last week, there was speculation of Sherman's future after a social media post indicated he was out as coach. In response to a text, Sherman said he was still head coach. Sherman, who also helped his wife, Kristen, coach flag football at Orange Lutheran, went 3-9 last season, including two forfeit losses. During the Southern Section Division 1 playoffs, the Lancers upset No. 1-seeded St. John Bosco."
"His team won a Southern Section Division 2 championship in 2021 and went 33-29 overall in five seasons. It was his second stint at Orange Lutheran. He had been an assistant coach and athletic director starting in the 1990s when Jim Kunau was head coach, then left to be a head coach in Colorado. The school indicated it will launch a search for Sherman's replacement. His wife is still listed as Orange Lutheran's flag football coach but that is expected to change, too."
Rod Sherman concluded his five-season tenure as Orange Lutheran head football coach. Last week social media suggested Sherman was out, though he had texted that he remained head coach. Sherman assisted his wife Kristen with flag football and finished 3–9 last season with two forfeit losses; his team upset top-seeded St. John Bosco in the Southern Section Division 1 playoffs. Sherman won a Division 2 section title in 2021 and went 33–29 overall in five seasons. The school will search for a replacement. General manager Kyla Laulhere and offensive line coach Chris Ward will run the program temporarily; offensive coordinator Austin Pettis is a likely candidate.
