A former John Jay high school assistant football coach plead guilty to an assault on a referee that took place in September.

Mack Breed, who resigned his football coaching job as news of his role in ordering football players to “take out” a referee during a game in Marble Falls in September, was ordered placed on probation for 18 months, and he will pay a $1,500 fine and do 120 hours of community service work.
Rojas and Moreno freely said Breed gave them the orders to hit on Watts, though Breed didn’t need to accept or deny the accusations in compliance with the conditions of his guilty plea.
Breed turned himself in at the Marble Falls Police Department today and entered his plea this afternoon after reaching a deal that keeps him out of jail for a year. Watts, who had been accused of directing racial slurs toward players before he was hit, denies the allegations. The Burnet County Attorney has indicated charges against the two players, Michael Moreno and Victor Rojas, will be filed shortly in court. According to a statement from the Burnet County Attorney’s Office, assault and aggravated assault charges are being considered.
A few weeks after the incident, the Northside Independent School District determined the players involved would spend 75 days in alternative school. Since Moreno is older than 17, any charges against him will be addressed in the adult criminal system, the release stated.
At a hearing in October, Breed was suspended from coaching at a University Interscholastic League school for the remainder of the 2015-16 school year and issued two years of probation.

“As a black male, nothing offended Mack Breed more than being called a racial epithet except someone in a position of authority calling his players racial epithets”, Reeves wrote.
