Longest-tenured coaches in Class A Division I

Written By Todd Holcomb

Only seven coaches last season had been at one GHSA school for 20 seasons or longer, and two of them retired. Those were J.B. Arnold (22 seasons at Jefferson County) and Tommy Atha (21 seasons at Darlington). That leaves Roger Holmes, in his 22nd season at Dublin, as Class A Division I’s longest-tenured head coach. Holmes is 184-70-1 with two state titles at Dublin.
