Tallulah Falls School has named Jo Kimbrel, the current Middle School Athletic Director, its new varsity head softball coach.
“We’re excited to have someone of Coach Kimbrel’s character, coaching acumen, and love for our kids leading the program,” says Athletic Director Scott Neal.
Kimbrel, who has been at TFS since the 2021-22 school year, has coached in a variety of sports and levels in her short time here. She’s held the head coaching position at TFS in JV volleyball, MS volleyball, and JV basketball and has assisted both the varsity basketball and volleyball teams.
Kimbrel has a solid background in softball, as she was the head varsity coach at Deerfield Windsor from 2012-2019 and the GISA All-Star “Blue” team head softball coach. She also was the assistant varsity and head middle school softball coach at Southwest Georgia Academy from 2005-10.
Kimbrel has coached or played on a state runner-up team, four region championship teams, and four region runner-up teams.
“I’m excited to have been given the opportunity to coach these young ladies on the diamond,” says Kimbrel. “I look forward to watching their growth not only as individuals but as a team.”
Tallulah Falls launched its softball program this past school year, and the high school players took part in an exhibition game against a local club team in the fall.
