Lloyd Barrow Field Dedicated In Honor Of Longtime Little League Coach
February 12, 2012
Lloyd Barrow Field was dedicated in Century Saturday morning in honor of longtime Little League coach Lloyd Barrow.
Barrow had a winning record as coach for the Century Blackcats in the Tri-County Little League from 1958 to 1973, including a 17-1 run in 1967. The original Tri-County Little League was comprised of teams from Century, Walnut Hill, Jay and Flomaton.
“We had a lot of good teams; we had a lot of good guys,” Barrow said Saturday as he reminisced about his days as a coach. One team he mentioned in particular was the 1963 10-Year Old All Stars.
“We just whipped up on all those other guys in Pensacola,” he said. “And we did it in ‘63, ‘64 and ‘65, three years straight.”
He was instrumental in establishing and building the Little League field at 580 Church Street that now bears his name.
Century Mayor Freddie McCall recognized Barrow “as a pillar of the community that has supported Century all his life” and for “instilling and building Blackcat Pride in the young athletes of Century”.

Century Honors Baseball Coaching Legend Floyd Adams
February 7, 2012
The Town of Century honored legendary baseball coach Floyd Adams Monday night with a proclamation highlighting some of his Century-area accomplishments.
Adams was head baseball coach at Century High School from 1968 to 1970 where he enjoyed a winning record and won the Escambia River Conference in 1969 and 1970. He was also named the conference’s coach of the year in 1969 and 1970. Adams also served as Northview High School’s coach during the 1996-1997 school year.
“The Mayor of the Town of Century, Florida, honors Floyd Adams for instilling and building Blackcat Pride in the young athletes of Century,” the proclamation presented Monday night states.
“I was honored to coach the very best wherever I went, and Century was no exception,” Adams said.
Last month, Adams was inducted into the Alabama Baseball Coaches Association Hall of Fame for his accomplishments in Alabama. At Jefferson Davis Community College in Brewton, Adams had a 10-season record of 303-149.
Adams also served as assistant coach for two years at Tate High School before moving up to serve as head coach for the Aggies for seven years.
Adams is a 1952 graduate of Escambia County High School in Atmore. He has been retired from coaching for over a decade.
