Trey Tinsley, head boys' basketball coach for Edmonson County High School, has resigned, according to Superintendent of Schools Brian Alexander.

Alexander told the Edmonson Voice he learned of the news on Monday, August 12th.

"I was contacted by Coach Tinsley on Monday afternoon and he informed me that he had accepted a job in another school district. I accepted his resignation as teacher at Edmonson County High School and head boy's basketball coach. Both positions will be posted for hire," Alexander said.

Tinsley coached at Edmonson County for a total of two years; the first year was as an assistant and he was named head coach last year, where the Wildcats finished 14-16 on the season, district runner-up, and made an appearance at the Region 3 Tournament, falling in the first round to Owensboro Catholic.

Tinsley said he accepted a position in the Russellville school system and will be the lead assistant coach on the high school boys' basketball team.

"I've had two great years at Edmonson County," Tinsley told the Edmonson Voice. "I love the kids and I hope the best for Edmonson County going forward."

"I would like to thank Coach Tinsley for his work as our head boy's basketball coach last season and as an assistant the previous year. We wish him the best in his new position."
