Ballew was 33-34 (.492) in six seasons after taking over for longtime coach Mike Suggs, whom he had served as an assistant coach. He spent more than two decades at Byrd. “Coach Stacy Ballew, a Byrd graduate who has served this school for 20-plus years as a player, assistant coach and head coach,” said Panos, who took over as school principal this fall, in a release. “This decision is not a reflection of his character or effort.
