On the Rise with the Rockets; Coach Fisher ignites Craig County Football

In this episode, we sit down with Craig County Rockets head football coach, Jimmy Fisher, a true New Castle native who has brought pride and consistency back to the program. Coach Fisher reflects on what it means to lead his hometown team, the transition into the head coaching role, and how the Rockets have stacked up 12 wins in his first three seasons, including an impressive 9-win campaign this year.

We dive into the culture he’s building within the program, the growth of his players, and the powerful role the Craig County community plays in supporting the Rockets on and off the field. With firsthand insight and small-town authenticity, Coach Fisher shares why this job is more than a coaching position—it’s personal.

A great listen for fans of high school football, small-community programs, and anyone who appreciates a coach who pours into the place he calls home.
