Bluefield researcher 1,197 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Most wins at schools. Only list the top coach and the 2nd if the 2nd won at least 100 games. Not by winning percentage, just by number of wins. Does not include record at other schools. Does include this year's games when applicable. 049-030-08 Ken Mathews - Abingdon - 1957-1965 069-054-04 Bill Jonas - Alleghany County - 1966-1978 041-063-00 Jack Baker - Alleghany - 2003-2012 112-035-08 Eddie Joyce - Andrew Lewis - 1960-1974 205-107-01 Tom Turner - Appalachia - 1980-2005 101-025-06 Jim Riggs - Appalachia - 1960-1972 040-081-00 Steve Wright - Auburn - 1992-1997, 2001-2006 087-076-00 Will Fields - Bath County - 2002-2015 047-023-02 Burchell Stallard - Big Stone Gap - 1951-1958 239-196-04 Dave Crist - Blacksburg - 1975-2014 048-079-00 Harris Hart - Bland County - 2004-2016 081-022-00 Jeff Woody - Brookville - 2005-2012 078-079-13 Tommy Thompson - Hillsville/Carroll County - 1957-1973; 078-081-00 Tom Hale - Carroll County - 1999-2013 048-046-00 David Scammell - Castlewood - 2004-2012 113-079-09 Charles Hammes - Cave Spring - 1966-1985 084-047-00 Larry Russell - Chilhowie - 2001-2012 097-068-00 Tim Cromer - Christiansburg - 2002-2016 266-090-15 Ralph Cummins - Clintwood - 1953-1987 108-037-00 Rick Mullins - Clintwood - 2003-2014 089-080-00 Carl Richards - Coeburn - 1985-2000 155-111-04 Francis "Boodie" Albert - Covington - 1942, 1946-1973 113-064-01 John Woodzell - Covington - 1981-1996 029-064-00 Mark McPherson - Craig County - 2004-2012 174-086-11 Vince Bradford - E.

sixcat 2,922 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Interesting stuff BR, thanks. I didn't realize Mark Dixon was already on top of the wins list for Galax but I shouldn't be surprised. Galax didn't make the playoffs once for the first 60+ years of the program and only have 5 playoff appearances prior to Dixon's arrival. They haven'y missed the playoffs once in Dixon's tenure. 1920-1984 = 0 playoff appearances 1985-2009 = 5 playoff appearances and 2 postseason wins 2010-2015 = 6 playoff appearances, 15 postseason wins, 2 state championship appearances, 1 state title Coaching matters! Credit to Craig Worrell of the Galax Gazette for the information. He puts out a football preview every fall and it is phenomenal. swva_havok_fan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swva_havok_fan 1,261 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Craig's is great, Bristol Herald does a great job also, Roanoke times pretty good I really liked when the BHC released a single edition football preview instead of spreading it out over two weeks of papers. Oh well, guess subscriptions declining and papers bought at newsstand declining/higher website traffic increasing will cause you to do that.

sixcat 2,922 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Stephen James 65-37, had a lot of rebuilding to do-started out 10-20 his first 3 years. I noticed that as well. Without question, the best football coach the Fort has had and he will do a great job in Pulaski. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also let me in the office to go through all the old papers that they had bound in books. Unfortunately none before WWII hence the limited information on Galax back that far.

1inStripes 933 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Sarge was 40-43-1 from 1983-1990. He wasnt the HC, but he basically ran the 97-99 teams at RC also. I guess that is why I think of him being ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
