Gregory Strittmatter, the 49 year old ex softball coach at Indiana Area Senior High School in Indiana, Pennsylvania has been accused of sending sexually explicit text messages to a 15 year old female student and member of the team.

Strittmatter allegedly began sending the messages in May 2008 and began to get more and more personal before finally turning sexual. Below are some excerpts of the messages allegedly sent to the girl, who's father found them after the girl handed her phone to him at a softball game.

"I'm lying here in bed can’t stop thinking of you. I need you."

"I wish i could hold you now. I have to refrain from the ultimate passion with you but i don’t think i can."

"I miss you. I need you. I wish you were here."

The girls father allegedly confronted Strittmatters wife, who pleaded with the father not to go to authorities, citing that it would ruin her family. Apparently the father also confronted Strittmatter himself, who admitted he sent the messages and said that he has a problem and needs help. Indeed.

Strittmatter was released on $5,000 bond and resigned from the school via email on June 13th 2008. Strittmatter is due back in court August 12th.
