Station Camp’s head Coach Seth Massey talks with Chase Feeman (11) and Thomas Zazzaro(21) during a break in the action of the State Tournament Quarterfinal game against David Crockett, on Wednesday March 16, 2016, at MTSU.
Station Camp head boys basketball coach Seth Massey will receive the Tennessee Secondary School Athletic Association’s A.F. Bridges Award for Male Coach of the Year for Athletic District 5.
Massey is one of 27 divisional recipients across the state to receive recognition on the basis of good sportsmanship and citizenship.
Nominations were made by a citizenship/sportsmanship committee and member schools in each athletic district, and the final selection was made by a state selection committee.
Massey led the Bison to their first-ever state tournament appearance last spring, finishing with a 36-2 record after suffering a 77-59 loss to runner-up Cordova in the semifinals.
