LAS VEGAS, N.M. (AP) - A high school volleyball coach of a top-ranked team in northern New Mexico has been placed on administrative leave.

The Las Vegas Optic reports Robertson High School’s head volleyball coach Stacy Fulgenzi was placed on administrative leave from coaching and teaching last week midway through the volleyball season. Las Vegas City Schools Superintendent Larryssa Archuleta told the Optic it was a “personnel matter” and declined to comment further on the subject.

Fulgenzi told the Optic she had not been given a reason for being placed on leave.

A recent coaches’ poll ranked the Robertson volleyball team at the top of New Mexico Class 3A. The district and state tournaments are scheduled in the next few weeks.

Fulgenzi has been the head volleyball coach since 2016.
