That's huge for Spotsy and a major loss for KG

Yes we need more to the story here. For KG to let this happen ? A single school county having this much success with an elite coaching staff leaves ? Don’t care if they didn’t win a ring nobody talked about KG as much as they did since that staff been here. I know this stings for the county but man how do you let this happen ? Congrats Spotsy Won’t be long before you are talked about state wide as an elite contender in the daunted 4B. Great job by the Spotsy AD he deserves credit. He made a splash! I’m intrigued to watch some Spotsy games now

Single county schools tend have a bit more flexibility in paying coaches. I truly hope this isn't a matter of them being cheap.

Appears this is the news a poster eluded to not long ago.

As I64 continues to be expanded and more trees are cleared out along with farms being converted into subdivisions, the population growth should cause even more teams to rise up out of obscurity.

I was surprised to see an article on this in today's Free Lance Star. Lunsford played for Spotsylvania HS. Getting to coach at his alma mater is the why in the article.

Spotsy Principal/AD may have made him a good pitch or he just may be excited to coach at his alma mater.

I didn't realize yesterday that Spotsy was his alma material. It makes more sense now. There's no better feeling than being able to come back and coach at your alma mater. It might not happen in year 1, but he will definitely make Spotsy a contender
