Kevin Driggs | Head Coach

His first two seasons with the Rattlers were played in the same calendar year as Kevin Driggs was hired right before the pandemic struck and the 2020 season took place in the spring of 2021, while that fall, Driggs helped lead the Rattlers to their second-straight postseason appearance.

Now entering his third season in 2022, Driggs hopes to keep that momentum trending upward. In his first year, the Rattlers advanced to the Lone Star Conference Tournament for the first time and to the postseason for the first time 2016.

In 2018, Driggs helped guide the Lady Buffs to the program's second regional championship along with winning the Lone Star Conference Championship and a program-best 14 game unbeaten streak.

Before joining WT, Driggs found success at La Cueva HS where he led the boys’ soccer team to two New Mexico 6-A State Championships (2012 &2009) during his six years with the Bears. Before becoming the head coach, Driggs spent two years as an assistant under legendary head coach Larry Waters winning three state titles.
