Huntsville-Madison County Athletic Hall Of Fame Inducted the Class of 2024 and our very own Coach Greg Brown was one of the inductees. Coach Brown, Head Boys Basketball Coach at Lee High School, was officially inducted into the Huntsville-Madison County Athletic Hall of Fame on Monday, April 15th. The organization honors and recognizes those have been the most impactful in sports.
Coach Brown has coached Lee High School's basketball team to three state championships (2010, 2021, and 2022), reached the Final Four seven times, and the Elite 8 fifteen times. His teams have won fifteen sub-regional championships, thirteen area championships, and he earned his 500th victory during the 2022-23 season. He also placed 84 students on basketball scholarships over his career, not counting this school year.
Coach Brown played collegiate basketball at Athens State University. He has even coached his own two sons, including Kobe, who was selected by the Los Angeles Clippers in the first round draft of the NBA in 2023, and Kaleb, who plays in the SEC for the University of Missouri.
"It means a lot to be a part of the "Elite"--to be among others that share the same passion that I have. It has always been my dream to be the "Best Coach" that I can be! And now to know my name goes up there with the best means a lot! For my players, my sons, and future grandchildren to remember me as being ranked up their with the best means everything to me!"
