Texas High announce the hiring for a full time Golf and Soccer Coaches to grow these sports. While Texas High is known in recent years for its football program, they have two other very successful program - Tennis and Swimming. Both of these sports have full time coaches focused 100% toward developing their programs (No classroom responsibilities). They are apparently going to follow this model to get more kids involved in these two sports.

Jay Brewer, a PGA assistant professional at Texarkana Country Club, was hired to head the golf program. Golf classes will begin at the Middle School level and he will coach both the boys and girls teams. TISD is apparently going to build a practice golf facility in the future.

Roger Williams has be hired to be the "Soccer Coordinator and Head Girls Soccer Coach". Per the Texarkana Gazette, he has coached a Winthrop , The Citadel, Newberry College, VMI, Arkansas State and the US Olympic Development Program. He apparently also has coached at Temple High. He will also has soccer classes in the middle school as well as responsibilities with the Girls High School program
