Malcolm Pendergrass Jr. passed away September 15. A native of Huntingdon, Coach Pendergrass had coaching stints at Towers HS in Atlanta, Harriman, and Huntingdon before ultimately joining a young program called West Carroll. Even though WC had a team for 6 years prior to Coach Pendergrass arrival WC had never won a game, had a field, or fieldhouse. Coach got to work on all that and brought us our first fieldhouse, football field, and win. Words can't describe how important this man was to our community not only in athletics but as our senior English teacher for many years. He was also our Athletic director when he retired. 

Rest in Peace Coach you were a good one!

      Camp season 2024

      Dyersburg is going to be good, really good. As mentioned, they have a lot of talent on the way and the trio of Chelby, Joya, and KayKay will only be better with a full season together under their belt. To me, playing in Murfreesboro two consecutive postseasons will only serve to make them more dangerous if/when they stand among the final eight teams this March. Experience, good or bad, always makes you better. And not only do they have experience, they know how to win there. Schedules are coming together for all of the teams and I am excited about what I am seeing on the preliminary drafts on Dyersburg’s schedule. I know I am being a tease, but it’s simply not my place to announce what another school is doing. With that said, I won’t go into specifics. However, I am excited about renewed home and away contracts for the non-district portion of the calendar. I think west Tennessee will have a lot of interest as well.

      They struggled to field a team last year. I don’t see them being much better?

      Couldn’t agree more.. Tate is a special kinda player , but fortunately for us we get a best of 3 series. I think our pitching is better than last year when we made the trip to west tn. Should be a fun 2 or 3 games.
