One of the winningest coaches in Dawson County High School history is moving on with hopes of repeating that success elsewhere. "I am excited, a new chance to kind of do what I had to do here," said boys' head basketball coach Thad Burgess about his departure. Burgess will move at the end of his school year contract to take a position as head basketball coach at Oconee County High School in Watkinsville.
