With athletic director Grady Turner retiring at the end of the school year, Dawson County High School has an important void to fill on their staff. That void was filled Wednesday when Jefferson High School’s Jason Gibson was announced as Turner’s successor.
“I’m really excited,” Gibson said. “I think Dawson County is a unique place. I love the fact that it’s a one-school system county. Everybody in that county is all for Dawson County. All things Dawson and that’s always a good thing.
“Their sports program has a rich history. It’s been successful on many levels and everything seems to be kind of going in the right direction…It’s an opportunity to come in and hopefully to continue the success and maybe improve some things in certain areas. I’m just looking forward to the opportunity to be up there and to work with all the coaches.”
