Hold onto your helmets, Soddy Daisy! The Trojans are gearing up for a season of touchdowns, triumphs, and a whole lot of fun under the helm of the newest head ball, Coach Josh Owensby. Students of the Game (SOTG) snagged an exclusive chat with the coach, and let us tell you, it’s about to get exciting on the turf for the Trojans!
In our candid conversation, Coach Owensby kicked off with the enthusiasm of a cheerleader and the strategic mind of a seasoned coach. AD Jared Hensley had nothing but praises, mentioning Owensby’s charisma and community-building skills. Translation: you in for a ride, Trojans!
So, what’s it like being the captain of the Trojan ship? According to Owensby, having the backing of Coach Hensley and Mrs. Cass means everything. Picture it like being the quarterback with the whole town cheering you on. Owensby assures us, the support goes beyond the playbook.
And about those iconic Friday nights at Soddy Daisy? Owensby spills the beans, “Friday nights here are different, always have been, and that’s exciting to be a part of.” Get ready, folks – it’s not just a game; it’s a community-wide party, and Owensby is set to be the life of it.
Before we jump into the playbook, let’s tip our hats to the coaching legacy left by Coach Cardwell. Owensby recognizes the traditions and values instilled by his predecessor and promises to bring his unique spin to the Trojan game plan.
Now, onto the players! Owensby spills, “Gage Welch and Tucker Ross both played a lot of football last year, so we’re hoping to lean on them this year.” But that’s not all – get ready to cheer for Luke Dodd, Lake Renfro, Jordy Dodd, and Johnny Davis. These guys are set to bring the magic to the field!
As for the coaching staff, Owensby keeps us on our toes with a few secrets. But one thing’s for sure – it’s shaping up to be a dream team, a bit like assembling the Avengers, but with football expertise.
Being a “Student of the Game” isn’t just about the Xs and Os for Owensby. “The best part of being in this game is the relationships you make over time with players, coaches, parents, admin, media,” he shares. It’s like being part of an exclusive club, and Owensby has the VIP pass.
SOTG Cohost Smokey sends a massive shoutout to Coach Owensby for the interview and extends gratitude to Jessie Smith of Meigs County for setting up this exclusive chat. You know it’s a touchdown when teamwork makes the dream work!
