Whitehaven Tigers Coach Signs Contract Extension Through 2028

Whitehaven High School head coach Derron Hayes has agreed to a contract extension through 2028, the school announced Thursday. The move comes on the heels of back-to-back playoff runs for the 6A Tigers, who have established themselves as a dominant force in Memphis-area football. Hayes' extension is seen as a vote of confidence in the coach's ability to lead the program to continued success. The Tigers have won at least 10 games in each of the past two seasons, and their strong recruiting classes have them positioned for another deep postseason run. With the extension, Hayes will be able to focus on building on the program's momentum and competing for a state championship in the years to come.
