South Caldwell Names New Football Coach

Chris Everhart has been named the South Caldwell High School new head football coach.

Everhart had been on the staff under Casey Justice, who stepped down but will continue to coach the school’s softball team.
A statement was issued by the school:

“South Caldwell High School is excited to announce the hiring of Chris Everhart as our new head football coach,” the school said in a social media post. “Coach Everhart is a leader of men, exemplifies toughness and discipline, and demands a high standard for our student-athletes. We are excited to watch him excel in his new leadership position and develop winners on and off the gridiron-congratulations Coach!”

The Spartans finished the 2025 season with a 2-9 overall record (0-5 Northwestern 6A/7A), yet made it to the N.C. High School Athletic Association’s 6A state playoffs thanks to a strong strength of schedule. The Spartans were blanked on the road at A.C. Reynolds in the first round.

South Caldwell competes in the Northwestern 6A/7A with Alexander Central, Freedom, McDowell, St. Stephens, and defending 6A state champion Watauga.
