Chris Elliott hoping to make big change for Central Coosa softball

Lizi Arbogast / The Outlook Central Coosa coach Chris Elliott, center, is hoping to bring much-needed success to the Cougar softball team in his first year as head coach.

It’s no secret Central Coosa’s softball team has had a rough go of it the last few years. The Cougars have been through a handful of coaches and haven’t won a game since 2018.

But Chris Elliott has been ushered in as the head coach and with him, he’s trying to bring an air of success and confidence. The good news is the transition has been fairly smooth for him as he was also hired as the Cougars’ volleyball coach last fall so he’s gotten a chance to learn his girls well. Plus, he doesn’t have any seniors and only three juniors on the roster, so Elliott is hoping to have plenty of time to instill his philosophies onto his players.
