Jamie Jimison set to take over Tallulah Falls’ XC, Track & Field programs

Tallulah Falls School has tabbed Jamie Jimison as its new head cross country and track and field coach ahead of the 2025-26 school year. Jimison will also serve as the assistant athletic director.

Jimison comes to TFS from nearby Piedmont University, where he has served as the Director of Track & Field and Cross Country since 2019. During his time over the Piedmont teams, he coached five individual NCAA Championship qualifiers, including the program’s first-ever All-American in track and field. He guided the cross country team to a pair of conference titles, and seven total in track and field, while also earning nine conference Coach of the Year awards.

Prior to Piedmont, Jimison held the same position at Mount Mercy University (IA) for nearly 10 years. His program highlights included coaching a pair of national champions, 27 All-Americans, and 115 NAIA Championship qualifiers. He’s also coached at Berea College (KY), Union College (KY), and Bethel-Tate Schools (OH).

“I’m thrilled and honored to have the opportunity to join the TFS family and continue to build on the strong tradition that has been established here by Coach [Scott] Neal,” says Jimison. “I can’t wait to get started coaching these fantastic student-athletes and helping them in the pursuit of their athletic ambitions.”

The cross country boys and girls placed fourth and seventh, respectively at state in 2024. The track and field boys and girls were sixth and fourth, at the state championship meet this past spring.

“We are excited to have Jamie join our team,” adds Athletic Director Greg Neeley. “His passion, attention to detail, and commitment to working with integrity will fit in great with the TFS community.”
