Longtime Gainesville High coach Manson Hill inducted into Ga. Athletic Coaches Assoc. Hall of Fame
0607Hill
Manson Hill coaches in his final game with Gainesville High on February 16, 2011 during the Lady Elephants' loss to Franklin County during the Region 8-AAA girls basketball tournament at Chestatee High.
It’s only fitting that Brenda Hill-Gilmore’s fondest memory of legendary coach Manson Hill came from inside the film room at Gainesville High. It was the year 2000, during Hill-Gilmore’s term as Hill’s assistant and daughter Tasha Humphrey’s freshman season with the Lady Red Elephants basketball team. Hill-Gilmore recalled the screen projecting Gainesville’s matchup with Pickens that week, and in a span of 20-plus minutes, Hill continued to identify one flaw.
