    Segerstrom removes baseball coach, principal after CIF violations announced
    • April 19, 2025

    The Santa Ana Unified School District has removed David Casper as Segerstrom principal and Erasmo Ramirez as the school’s varsity baseball coach after the CIF Southern Section found that the school’s baseball program violated CIF rules.

    Segerstrom’s baseball team has to forfeit all of its wins this season and is ineligible for this year’s playoffs due to rule violations. Segerstrom was 12-7 overall at the time and in first place in the Golden West League.

    Ramirez has been the team’s baseball coach since 2009.

    The CIF-SS stated that Segerstrom has been placed on probation, in addition to the other sanctions, for violating the section’s bylaws regarding “Undue Influence,” “Authorized Participation” and “Administrative Oversight.”

    The SAUSD stated in a release: “As part of the District’s response to these findings we have temporarily removed Principal David Casper from his position at Segerstrom High School and temporarily reassigned him to another role within the District. Additionally, Head Coach Erasmo Ramirez has been removed from his coaching duties, pending further review.

    “To maintain continuity in leadership, SAUSD Director of Secondary Student Achievement Celeste Migliaccio will step in as interim principal. The current assistant principals will remain at Segerstrom and continue in their roles to provide daily support to the school community.”
