DeKalb Middle School Lady Saints Basketball Coach Josh Agee reached a milestone Monday night notching his 250th career coaching victory as his team defeated Cannon County in Smithville.
Coach Agee, who is in his 18th year as coach, has spent his entire head coaching basketball career as head of the Lady Saints program.
“I have been teaching 20 years and coaching 18 of those years. I have been in it a long time but I feel blessed to have been able to do it,” said Coach Agee.
As significant as this coaching achievement is for him, Agee hopes he has been able to teach his players more than just the game of basketball.
“I have been blessed with some great players over the last 18 years. Hopefully I have impacted them because that is what it is all about. Making them be responsible. Teaching them about life through the game of basketball. At the end of the day no one will remember the number (coaching record). Its really about building relationships and impacting people in the community,” said Coach Agee.
