Overtime Thriller Gives Coach Dorminey 300th Win

His career started in 1991, and 30 years later, Trinity Christian Academy Head Football Coach Verlon Dorminey began the 2021 season – his 31st at the helm – with a record of 296 wins and only 77 losses.

The Conquerors won a nail biter against Raines in the season opener. Trinity then handed Coach Dorminey wins #298 and #299 in running-clock fashion in Weeks 2 and 3.

Win #300, though, would not come so easily in Week 4 vs. Clearwater Academy International, but come it did. Sixty minutes of gut-wrenching football were not enough, however. It took an overtime possession, a field goal, and a defensive stop to finally get Coach Dorminey that milestone win and make him the 7th head coach to win 300 games in the State of Florida and only the 4th to do so for one school.

Trinity defeated CAI 53-50 in what may be the most exciting game Verlon Dorminey has ever coached – regular-season, playoff, or even championship game.
