CVN has learned that former Darlington head football coach, and current Calhoun Yellow Jacket, Tommy Atha, is the leading candidate to become the head football coach at Cedartown High School.

With 179 career wins under his belt, Atha is the winningest football coach in Darlington history. He served as an assistant coach during the Tigers’ state championship season in 1998 and, as head football coach for the past 21 years, he has led the team to the state playoffs 19 times and helped them secure seven region championships. 

Atha won a state championship last season serving as a coach for the Calhoun Yellow Jackets
