Pittsboro, NC – The North Carolina High School Athletic Association has named Jason Amy as the state
Athletic Director of the Year for the 2020-21 school year when he served as Northwood’s athletic
director.
The state awards are designed to recognize those who have done the most for high school athletics in the state rather than a single accomplishment or having an outstanding record.
Amy has been a longtime Athletic Director at Northwood. The Chargers had one of their best years in recent memory in the 2020-21 school year, sending the men’s basketball team to the State Championship game and making deep playoff runs in football, women’s basketball and several other sports.
“We are extremely proud of Mr. Amy’s honor,” said Superintendent Dr. Anthony Jackson. “It’s representative of the hard work and dedication he puts in, and it’s an award he truly deserves.”
Tavares Toomer, NCHSAA director of business and finance, presented the award to Amy at the Monday, Sept. 13, Chatham County Board of Education meeting.
Amy now serves as the SeaforthHigh School’s athletic director.
