Swanton Middle School's seventh grade girls basketball coach has resigned following his arrest during an undercover sex sting at a Bowling Green area hotel.

According to the Wood County Sheriff's Office, Bowling Green police and the FBI arrested 55-year-old Lary LaVigne, along with 17 others, during a vice operation on Nov. 8.

LaVigne submitted his resignation on the same day, but did not list a reason, according to The Blade. He was reportedly a coach for close to 10 years.

LaVigne will appear in court on Dec. 10 for a pretrial hearing.
