The annual Murfreesboro Christmas Parade will be here before you know it. This years theme... That was Marketing Coordinator Lynn Caldwell. This year's parade will head down East Main Street and around the historic Rutherford County Square on Sunday, December 8th at 2 pm.
Parks Director Nate Williams highlighted the Grand Marshals for the parade... Matt Insell is the Associate Head Women's Basketball Coach at MTSU and Rick Insell, Matt's father, is the Head Women's Basketball Coach.
According to the University, no coach in Middle Tennessee women’s basketball history has produced the success that Rick Insell has in 19 seasons. Since his arrival to Middle Tennessee in 2005, Insell has led the Raiders to 12 NCAA Tournament appearances, six WNITs, coached seven All-Americans and grew five WNBA Draft picks. In his 19 seasons, the eight-time hall of fame inductee has established a track record unlike any other in the Lady Raiders’ rich women’s basketball history, while also creating lofty expectations. In 19 seasons leading his alma mater’s women’s basketball program, Insell has also positioned Middle Tennessee as one of the winningest programs nationally.
Christmas Parade Registration: To be in the parade closes on Sunday, December 1, 2024.
