Clay Atwood was recently hired to be the Atoka head baseball coach for the 2025-2026 school year. He replaces Trevor Cook, who led the Wampus Cats to a 6-28 record a season ago. Atwood will also be an assistant football coach at Atoka.
“Mr. Atwood brings so much to our district beyond his baseball experience, which is impressive. His passion for classroom teaching was evident in his interview and we were confident he would impact our high school beyond the baseball program.
“Finally, his experience playing and coaching football along with his relationship with Coach (Luke) Ring was exciting as we wanted to bolster our football staff. Overall, we felt Mr. Atwood would be a wonderful addition to our Wampus Cat Family,” Christopher Karch, Atoka Public Schools Superintendent said.
