Jason Carrera, the football coach who made Meadowcreek competitive after years of futility, is stepping down to become the athletic director at Central Gwinnett, where he also will be an assistant principal.
Terrance Banks, a former Newton head coach, will take over at Meadowcreek. The Mustangs are 2-4 overall this season and 1-1 in Region 7-7A.
Meadowcreek was won only five games from 2002 to 2014, making it Georgia’s least successful team in the highest classification.
In Carrera’s first season in 2015, Meadowcreek went 3-7, the program’s best finish since 2001. In 2017, the Mustangs made their first playoff appearance since 1988. They made the playoffs again in 2020.
Banks was Newton’s coach from 2013 to 2018 and coached Tri-Cities in 2019.
