February 2025
Submitted by Coach Park
Welcome to Back!
As we kick off the second edition of The Den, we’re excited to celebrate the spirit of the winter season and the incredible dedication of our student-athletes. January is a special month for reflection, celebration, and looking ahead. 
Our Men’s Wrestling team dominated the conference and was crowned the Central Carolina Conference Champions with a 6-0 record.
We had 4 wrestlers win an individual Conference Championship. Cameron Coble, Clyde Adams, Carolina Wilburn, and Gabby Akers. Congratulations to all of them for their hard work this season. However, the work isn’t done as the wrestling post season is the beginning of February. 
Jordyn Jernigan won the 50-Free and the 100-Fly in Davidson County Swim Championships and the 50-Free and the 100-Free in the Central Carolina Conference Swim Championships.
We are proud to honor our senior athletes for their contributions, hard work, and leadership on and off the field. Their dedication has been a driving force for their teams and their legacy will leave an impact for years to come.
Thank you for being part of the South Davidson family!

COLLEGE COMMITMENT
Congratulations to Anna Smith for her commitment to play tennis at Pfeiffer University! 

Thank you to the North Carolina Youth Outdoor Engagement Commission
We were awarded a $25,000 hosting grant from the NC Youth Outdoor Engagement Commission, which is allowing us to purchase a new pole vault system. With the addition of the new track over the summer, we were just short of being able to host the Davidson County Track Championships, the Conference Track Championships, and the 1A-4A NCHSAA Regional Track Meets. A new pole vault pit, which costs between $20,000 and $30,000, was the final piece we needed.
 
Thanks to the grant, we will be purchasing the new pole vault system and are excited to announce that the Davidson County Track Championships will take place on April 14, 2025, at 4:00 PM.
We will also be applying to the NCHSAA to host a Regional Track meet in 2026.
