Starkville Oktibbeha Consolidated School District has named Jay Hopson as the new Director of Athletics, overseeing the administration and operation of a program which encompasses 19 sports for 7th through 12th graders, a coaching staff of more than 80 and over 600 student athletes. "Jay is a proven leader," says SOCSD Superintendent Dr. Tony McGee.
