EASTERN, Ky. (WMDJ) – Floyd Central High School has named Trevor Hoskins as new football coach.
Hoskins spent the previous four seasons leading the Paintsville Tigers with a record of (22-26) including a (5-4) record in postseason play.
Hoskins was given the reigns of the program after Joe Chirico left at the conclusion of the 2020 seasons and the school’s first-ever state championship.
Hoskins brings a heavy resume of high achievement as a former player on both the high school and collegiate levels. Hoskins was a standout performer for Middlesboro High School where he was named 2006 conference Player of the Year. Hoskins threw for 2,106 yards as a senior with 24 touchdown passes and ran for 779 yards and 14 scores. As a sophomore, he was named all-state honorable mention as a wide receiver.
At the collegiate level, Hoskins spent a year as a redshirt freshman for Eastern Kentucky University before transferring to the University of Pikeville, where he finished with 7,481 career passing yards, which is 2,000 more than any other player, and threw 64 touchdowns, which is 25 more than the next arm on the list.
Hoskins began coaching as a graduate assistant at UPIKE and later returned as an assistant coach for the Bears. He also spent a couple seasons as an assistant at Middlesboro.
Judging by his most recent stint at Paintsville and his standout play at quarterback, Floyd Central fans should expect to see a high-flying offensive attack with a strong passing game.
