I bounced around a bit in my coaching career in the mid-to-late 2000s and coached at two different schools that played against Carthage/Illini West. I heard that train horn more than I would like to remember...
You can easily argue Camp Point Central's "turnaround" started under Bill Reed, but Brad Dixon did get things rolling early in his tenure. He went 10-1, 12-1, 11-1 in his first three years from '11-'13.
