After three successful and controversial years as head football coach at Red Lion Christian Academy, Eric Day has stepped down.

Day, who guided the Lions to a 23-7 record, resigned Friday saying he wanted to spend more time on personal growth.  Day and the Lions would have been the top seed in the Division II playoffs last year, but the Delaware Interscholastic Athletic Association put the coach and the school on probation for excessive practices and playing too many games.

Red Lion Christian also made national headlines when its 8th grade quarterback verbally committed to USC.
