We honored 6-time KRES Coach of the Year Kenny Wyatt with a retirement program on Magic City Sports Talk Friday. He explained the difficult part about stepping away after 37 years on the sideline…

Wyatt was a KRES All-Star basketball player at Salisbury High School in 1979. He was glad to lead his alma mater’s basketball team for 29 years….

When he came back to Salisbury, he came alongside another Hall of Famer in girls basketball coach Dennis Humphrey. Wyatt said relationships are why he coached….

Wyatt won two state championships at Salisbury, but he counts another team as special for another reason. The 2000 Panthers won just one game, then turned around and won a district championship the next year…..

Kenny Wyatt won a lot, with a career mark of 759-265. 606 of those wins came at Salisbury. You can find the full interview by going to the Magic City Sports Talk page at centralmoinfo.com.
