Following Anderson County’s 55-13 win over Sequoyah High School Friday night, Maverick players, parents, and fans honored Head Coach Davey Gillum.

In 2019, Gillum coached the Mavs to their third straight Region 2-4A title. He also marked the year with his 100th win as head coach of the Mavericks.

“He is the best play-caller in the state and his expectation is to win every down and game,” Anderson County High School Athletic Director Gary Terry said.

“But what makes him the best is his faith. And having my kids grow up in our program with that is priceless.”
