Grand Prairie ISD made it official on Wednesday naming Dallas White head coach Kenchee Ross as the next head coach at Grand Prairie High School, Coach Ross takes over for the Gophers after the sudden passing of head coach Tony Tademy in early January.
“I always felt like Grand Prairie had potential and that was the initial draw to the position, there’s great facilities and some pieces to build on. Grand Prairie has first class administration from the campus administration all the way to the GPISD athletic administration, it was a thorough process and they answered all the questions I had, I feel like they want to give a lot of support to all of athletics and I’m grateful for the opportunity,” said Ross who takes over a program that went 1-9 in 2024.
