Miami Central Rockets Name New Defensive Coordinator
Miami Central Rockets head coach, Bill Walsh, announced Friday that assistant coach, Tony Jenkins, has been promoted to defensive coordinator. Jenkins, a 5-year veteran of the program, has been instrumental in developing the team's defensive unit, which has consistently ranked among the top in the 7A classification. The move is seen as a key factor in the team's bid to return to the state championship game, where they finished as runners-up in 2024. With the addition of Jenkins to the coordinator role, the Rockets are expected to remain a top contender in the FHSAA 7A playoffs. The team's recruiting efforts are also expected to benefit from the promotion, as Jenkins has established strong relationships with top defensive prospects in the Miami area.
