The Wilson Central boys basketball program will have its third head coach in three seasons after Tyler Brown recently resigned after one year at the helm.

Brown is leaving to serve as an assistant basketball coach at Spring Hill.

Brown led the Wildcats to a 12-15 overall record and a 4-10 mark in District 9-AAA last season, suffering a 70-56 loss to Lebanon in their postseason opener.

Brown had previous coaching stints as a head girls basketball coach, spending the previous two seasons at Hickman County after a four-year stint at Santa Fe.

Brown succeeded Troy Bond, who was the only coach in the program’s history before he left to coach at Oakland. Bond led the program to 292 wins and four state-tournament appearances over 14 seasons.

Wilson Central lost two of its top three scorers, guards Desmond Mason and Aaron Schoch, from a seven-member senior class.

The Wildcats’ leading returning scorer will be rising junior forward Gavin Johnson.
