Blake Bone resigned as Southside High School?s baseball coach Wednesday. It wasn?t a decision that came out of the blue for Bone. It?s been in the back of his mind for a while now
A familiar face in the Southside school system ? and Etowah County ? now is leading the Panthers? baseball program. Mike Lamb, who has been a coach at Gaston (2001-05) and Westbrook Christian (2006-11), recently was named Southside?s baseball coach. The 64-year-old also coached baseball three years at Rainbow Middle School. With no teacher spots open, there wasn?t a lot of flexibility for finding a new coach. But that turned out to be OK with Lamb in the school system. Once Blake Bone told Lamb he was stepping down, he immediately let Southside principal Chris Winningham know he was interested.
