Phenix City Schools announces that Patrick Nix has stepped down as the Head Football
Coach at Central High School to pursue opportunities in Ministry.
During his six seasons at Central, Coach Nix led the Red Devils to an exceptional run of success that included four region championships, six semifinal appearances, three state championship appearances, and the 2023 Class 7A State Championship.
“Coach Nix has left a lasting impression on Central High School,” said Chris Lindsey, Central High School Principal. “The culture and values that he brought to our school were invaluable. Those same cultures and values far outweigh the wins and championships that were won on the field. We are very thankful for the lasting impact that Coach Nix and his family have left on Central High School, and we wish them nothing but the best in the future.”
Before his tenure at Central, Coach Nix served as the head coach at Scottsboro High School and Pinson Valley High School. Across thirteen seasons as a head coach, he holds a record of 131-36, capturing three state championships: two at Pinson Valley and one at Central.
