Maxen said he no longer felt comfortable hiding his sexuality or his boyfriend of two years.

“You have other coaches who have significant others, and they’re talking about their significant others,” Maxen said. “And I felt guilty that I couldn’t do the same thing, that I was letting myself down.”

Both sad that it’s a first, and good for others who might be in a similar situation.

Good for him. Especially with the way floridas current political and social climate is. Hope he doesn’t face harassment for it. Hopefully we get to a place one day where he won’t feel the need to hide it.

What a badass coming out in such a shitty climate for LGBTQIA people.

I fucking hate that this is news worthy.
