Oregon soccer coach charged with sex abuse

OREGON CITY, Ore. — A Happy Valley assistant soccer coach has been charged with sex abuse involving a 16-year-old girl on his team.

OREGON CITY, Ore. — A Happy Valley assistant soccer coach has been charged with sex abuse involving a 16-year-old girl on his team.

The Clackamas County sheriffs office said 21-year-old Travis Ferguson was arrested Tuesday following an investigation by a deputy assigned as the school resource officer for Rex Putnam High School.

Ferguson is an assistant coach for Thelo United, a club soccer program in the Portland metro area.

Deputies said a relationship between Ferguson and the girl developed while he coached her in the club soccer program and not the high school, where he assisted last year.

Ferguson was released after he was booked at the Clackamas County Jail and ordered not to have any contact with any persons under the age of 18.
