While I’ve had the privilege to coach multiple sports across all age levels, little league to high school, for the better part of 15 years this is a new roll for me.”

Ivey  continued, “As with any new roll, the level of excitement and expectations are high. I hope to collaborate with coaches and athletes for continued athletic success at Claiborne High School.”
