The Surry Runnin’ Patriots girls basketball team led their longtime coach to his 300th win with a big win over the Cabarrus Stallions on Jan. 22.
Todd Hill has been coaching basketball for 40 years, but only started coaching the Patriots in 2003. His first win with the program was recorded on December 2, 2003. He continued coaching the Patriots for five seasons until 2008 when he took four years off from coaching. He eventually re-joined the Patriots in 2012 and has been with the team ever since, making this his 14th season.
“To me, 300 wins is just an example of the hard work that the kids put on the floor, trying to make themselves a better ball player,” Hill said.
Coach Hill has led the Patriots to seven conference championships and has been honored as coach of the year five times. He has also led Surry to 11 state final fours, including a win in the 2014-15 State Championship. full story...
