Team History and Awards
Anderson County High School, located in Clinton, Tennessee, fields athletic teams known as the Mavericks, wearing navy blue and gray. The school opened in 1982 through the consolidation of Norris High School and Lake City High School.
The Mavericks football program has a strong playoff tradition, with a championship record of 37–28 across 29 postseason appearances. In 2022, the team captured its first-ever Tennessee Class 4A state championship, defeating Pearl Cohn 34–30 and completing a perfect 15–0 season.
The program holds an all-time record of 262–178–0 (60% winning percentage) and has secured at least eight district championships, including 1982, 1985, 2001, 2013, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2024 (marking an eighth-straight Region 2-4A title).
