Hi Tiger Fans,
This is your athletic director at Jefferson K-12, Pat Kennedy. First and foremost, I want to thank all the fans who attended and supported our youngsters all season long. For those of you who may not know, I was the ticket man in the booth. Keep in mind this is only the beginning, and our support needs to grow and grow. On a personal note I enjoyed meeting many of you on all those Friday evenings.
Our football team got better and better as the season progressed. That is a real tribute to Coach Footman and his staff. This past weekend we had a convincing 24-14 victory over Liberty High. Our offense improved continually, and our defense started getting more and more stops. The coaching staff is already excited about a productive off-season, which will us allow to hit the ground running next season.
Our men’s and women’s soccer teams, under the direction of Coach Fils, kick off their season with a home game against Port St, Joe on Nov. 10. Then they travel to Hamilton for their first road test the next day, Nov. 11. Let's get behind both of these teams as much as possible. They are a very dedicated group of athletes.
Hoops season is right around the bend. Coach Trey Thomas will have his girls suit up at home against Wewahitchka on Thursday, Nov. 10. Let’s show these ladies our support. Lastly, on Nov. 17 the boys travel close by to play Brookwood and then have our home opener on Friday night at 7 p.m. against Community Christian. I can guarantee you one thing, you will see an exciting brand of basketball.
Once again, I can’t thank you enough for supporting these wonderful student-athletes and Jefferson County Schools. And a special thank you to all the folks that set the field up, worked the games and did numerous things behind the season. Nothing would work without your help.
GO TIGERS!!!!
Pat Kennedy
Athletic Director
