W
hereas, a towering
figure in Horry County sports, Coach Chuck Jordan was born to rule the turf.
Since 1979, he has been involved in all things sports during a coaching career
that spanned decades and has received awards and honors befitting his storied
profession; and

W
hereas, to prepare for
his career, Jordan earned a bachelor's degree cum laude from Presbyterian
College in 1979, where he also was captain of the football team in 1978. He
later earned a master's degree in administration in 1985, and a master's plus
thirty credit hours in athletic administration in 2007, both from the
University of South Carolina; and

W

football and baseball at Richland Northeast High School for two years and
served as assistant football and head track coach at Presbyterian College,

W
hereas, from May 1983
to June 2017, Jordan was athletic director and head football coach at Conway
High School where he consistently led the Tigers to winning seasons, posting a
record of two hundred eighty-seven winning games in thirty-four seasons. While
Jordan and the Tigers never won a state championship, they came close finishing
second in the state four times; and

W
hereas, as director of
the Conway High School Athletic Foundation, Jordan initiated a $1.3 million
athletic improvement campaign to build new football, softball, and track
facilities, considered one of the finest high school athletic complexes in the
State; and

W
hereas, for his
excellence, Coach Jordan received the Region V/VI Division AAAA Coach of the
Year award eleven times from 1984 to 2008, was the South Carolina Division AAAA
Coach of the Year in 1995, the Carolina Panthers North Carolina/South Carolina

W
hereas, Coach Chuck
