Ms.Thoroughman, Hillgrove’s very own athletic director, was given a prestigious honor last week, The Tim Crunk’s Athletic Director of the Year. This award was created in 2012 and named after the late Tim Crunk, an athletic director at Sprayberry High School who tragically passed away while exercising. She felt very fortunate to represent us well in the county, “I was very shocked and honored to receive this award because I work with some outstanding athletic administrators in the district… I feel very special. I absolutely love what I do.” She was presented this award at Wheeler High School during an athletic director's meeting in front of her peers. A few basketball coaches expressed their appreciation for Ms.Thoroughman.
Mrs.Avery thinks that Mrs.Thoroughman is the perfect recipient for this award, “One thing I admire about her, with me being a fellow woman, is that she holds a position that most males hold. She represents women well and she is great at her job.”
Coach Morris, “She is very organized and keep all of the sports running smoothly.”
Coach Milam,”She is very supportive and enthusiastic. She is all about Hillgrove and is always willing to do what she needs to do to get us ready for games and practices.”
Congratulations, Ms. Thoroughman on being Cobb County’s 2017 Athletic Director of the Year!
