"Chris King is no longer the head coach," read the statement. "Work is underway to hire an interim head coach for the team. The Rustlers resume play in the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference on Jan. 17."
The news comes after King was put on administrative leave on Nov. 28 after a former player allegedly filed a complaint with the college.
