I'm trying to fill some gaps in the Lee County basketball coaching chronology. Usually I can Google this kind of recent information, but have struck out this time. So far I have:

 

1995

1996

1997

1998 Dee Hutchins

1999

2000 Gene Combs (Dee Hutchins takes over at LaRue County)

2001 Brent Duncil

2002

2003 Danny Wright begins

 

Anyone know the rest? Thanks!

That looks about right! Your welcome for the info :thumb:

I go back a few years. Gene Flynn coached Lee County in the early 1960's until Heber Dunaway took over around 1965. Dunaway caoched until around 1981 (winning the 14th region in 1968 and 1973) and was replaced by his assistant Charles Duncil. I'm not sure how many years Duncil coached but I don't think it was about 3 or 4. He resigned and replaced by Coach Hogan (I know him well but can't think of his first name right now). Hogan coached through the end of the 1980's and I believe he was replaced by Cruise, the father of Lee Cruise who is on Channel 18 news. Then Dee Hutchins coached for several years and was followed by a secession of coaches until Danny Wright settled in until his recent resignation.

I have copies of the KHSAA coaching lists from 1939 through 1954; the 1955-1992 lists are online; have KHSAA publications from 1996-2000; and have gathered names from various sources over the years. But they are not always spot on. I'll keep all the info you guys have supplied as I type it all up. I appreciate y'all's input.
