UC Davis Aggies Football Coach’s Wife Arrested for Domestic Battery
In a surprising turn of events, Amanda Plough, the wife of UC Davis Aggies football head coach Tim Plough, was arrested late Wednesday night on charges of domestic battery. The incident, which occurred at their residence in Davis, California, has sent shockwaves through the UC Davis community, particularly among the Aggies football program.
According to local authorities, officers responded to a call regarding a domestic disturbance at approximately 10 PM. Upon arrival, they found evidence suggesting that a physical altercation had taken place. Amanda Plough was taken into custody without incident and booked into the Yolo County Jail. She was later released on bail.
The UC Davis Athletic Department issued a statement expressing their concern regarding the situation but refrained from commenting further until more information becomes available. “We are aware of the incident involving Coach Plough’s wife and are monitoring the situation closely,” the statement read. “The well-being of our student-athletes and staff is our top priority.”
Tim Plough, who has been at the helm of the Aggies football program since 2020, has not publicly addressed the matter. He is currently preparing the team for an important game against rival Sacramento State this weekend. The timing of the incident raises questions about its potential impact on the team and coaching staff as they navigate this challenging situation.
Fans and alumni have expressed their support for both the coach and his family during this difficult time. As the story develops, the UC Davis community remains hopeful for a resolution that prioritizes the well-being of everyone involved. Further updates are expected as more details emerge.
