Less than two weeks after unexpectedly losing a newly-hired football coach and athletics director, Pike Liberal Arts School has found its new leader in Travis Baxley.
The private school in Troy made the announcement through a press release Thursday morning.
In late May, it was announced veteran coach Hugh Fountain was leaving Escambia Academy to oversee the Patriots. However, Fountain later had a change of heart and was recently hired to coach W.S. Neal.“My family and I are very excited about joining the Pike Lib family,” Baxley said. “We have lived in Troy for several years and love this community, the people, and its environment of strong education and athletics.
“I believe I bring energy, discipline, confidence and an attention to detail that will permeate everything we do, and I can’t wait to get started.” “We couldn’t be happier to have Coach Baxley joining the Pike family,” Hixon said. “Coach Baxley has a lot of knowledge about the game of football, and an energy that’s contagious. I believe he’s the right fit at the right time for our athletic program, and I can’t wait to work alongside him to continue to chase success for Pike athletics.”“I am extremely excited to have Coach Baxley join our staff and become a Patriot,” Burkett said.
