Two years ago, Coach Dixon gave up coaching High School Boys Basketball after 13 seasons to become the Head Boys Track Coach at Camp Point Central. Over the past two years, Coach Dixon has made speed THE priority in every athlete that he trains, and it has made a major impact on how he now runs his high school football program. This past summer he also became RPR Level 2 Certified and it has been another game changer for his program.
