The Paintsville Tigers had a coach for 28 years who truly had “the Tiger by the tail”, leading them to over 700 wins including 14 district titles, 8 regional titles, 4 Final Four state tournament appearances, and a Sweet 16 championship in 1996. His coaching achievements put him in the same category as mountain coaching greats Russell Williamson, Bobby Keith, John Bill Trivette, Patrick Payne and Pearl Combs. Coach Bill Mike Runyon retired and is now a coaching legend for the ages.
