High School Tennis coaches who implement a no-cut policy play a critical role in allowing young players the opportunity to be part of a team, represent their school, and develop their abilities. This opportunity also helps create well-rounded student-athletes, instills leadership qualities, and teaches responsibility. The Southern Section of the United States Tennis Association has selected Pikeville High School Head Coach Jordan Johnson, as the 2022 High School No-Cut Coach of the Year. Congratulations Jordan Johnson!
