Little Cypress-Mauriceville Athletic Director and Head Football Coach Randy Crouch has announced his intentions to retire at the end of the 2020-2021 school year. According to Crouch, “After playing or coaching for 55 years, it’s time. I want to thank Little Cypress-Mauriceville for the opportunity to be the AD and Head Coach for the past twelve years and for the four years I spent as an Assistant Coach. The support here is wonderful.” He also thanked LCM Superintendent Stacey Brister for the leadership that she has provided and is also appreciative of Dr. Pauline Hargrove, who is the retired Superintendent who hired him. Crouch also wants to recognize his wife, Dewanna, who has been so supportive through the years.
Crouch was hired by LCM in 2009. In 12 seasons he posted a record of 52-69 with a district mark of 34-38. The Bears made the postseason six of those seasons and had a record of 1-6. The one postseason win came in 2019 when the Bears beat Stafford 48-21 for the schools first postseason win since 1997.
Crouch is the second coach from the 10-4A D1 District to step down. Following the 2020 football season Lumberton’s Chris Babin announced his resignation.
In 2018 Louisiana Tech recognized Crouch as one of the Top 50 players to ever play at Joe Aillet Stadium as a part of the stadiums 50th Anniversary recognition. Crouch was a standout offensive lineman with the Bulldogs after being named a high school All-American while attending Sulphur High in 1971.
