A Dobson High School basketball coach has been arrested for sexual conduct with a minor after allegedly having sexual relations with several underage female athletes.

Mesa police say 23-year-old Kyler William Ashley was arrested after trying to meet a 16-year-old student-athlete at Tempe Marketplace to have sex. Ashley had allegedly been messaging the girl for several months on Snapchat. Police say Ashley thought he was meeting the victim at Tempe Marketplace to have sex but instead was arrested by police.

After his arrest, 23-year-old Kyler William Ashley also allegedly admitted to having sexual relations with two other 17-year-old student athletes. On several occasions, Ashley would pick up the victims and take them to an alley or parking lot to engage in sexual activity.

On one occasion, Ashley's one-year-old child was also allegedly in the car at the time of the sex assault.

One victim told police she knew Ashley since he was her middle school basketball coach.

Ashley coached girl's JV basketball at Dobson High School from 2016-2019. He also coached 7th-grade girl's basketball at Summit Academy in Chandler. Police have not been notified of any incidents involving students at the middle school, but anyone with any information is asked to call Mesa police.

Mesa police say a background was done on Ashley before he was hired, and nothing of importance was found.

Ashley faces charges for sexual conduct with a minor, sex abuse and luring a minor for sexual exploitation. Additional charges are expected as the investigation continues.

You'd think when a 23 year old man is hired to coach middle school girls, they'd keep a closer watch on him.
Maybe he was hoping to sleep his way to the varsity team.
 
Was he just the coach or also a teacher. I know when I was in JH/HS the coaches all had to be teachers, or at least the position was open to teacher first if they wanted it. They recently changed it which benefits the sports programs because they can get better coaches than some fat algebra teacher who only really wants the extra money.

In addition to the prison time, Ashley will be registered as a sex offender and will be placed on lifetime probation upon his release from prison.

Mesa police arrested Ashley on May 16, 2019, after he tried to meet a 16-year-old student-athlete at Tempe Marketplace to have sex. He had been messaging the girl for several months on Snapchat.
