Warren County High School graduate Phillip King is stepping back into the batter’s box when it comes to coaching.King accepted the job as Tullahoma High School baseball coach on Tuesday, assuming leadership of a program rich in tradition.“This is a job that doesn’t come open very much,” said King, a 1989 Warren County graduate. “They’ve had three head coaches since 1970 so it’s something I view as a great opportunity. When it was offered to me, I accepted.”King said he interviewed for the job with longtime Tullahoma baseball coach Jerry Mathis, who has won two state championships.
