There's a new energy brewing in Martinez, GA, as Augusta Christian High School officially welcomes Roy Stabler as its new head football coach. Stabler, who recently led Southwest Florida Christian Academy to district championship contention, steps into the role with a clear mission: reignite the Lions' winning tradition and bring them back to state championship glory.

Stabler knows a thing or two about high-level competition. As a former player, he was the top-ranked defensive back in Alabama before taking his talents to the University of Southern Mississippi. Now, he's bringing that championship mindset to Augusta Christian, where he sees a program already primed for success.

"The biggest thing is to reignite that fire—but honestly, the fire is already here," Stabler shared during his introduction. "I see it in baseball, basketball winning titles. It's already set. It just takes that leader to push. That's my focus: help push this program forward."

Stabler isn't wasting any time. He's already deep into spring football, meeting with players and laying the groundwork for a new era. For a program with a proud history, the message is clear: the Lions are ready to roar again. Whether you're a fan, player, or just love a good comeback story, this is one season you won't want to miss.
