WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina - Bobby Collins, the longest tenured men's basketball coach at Winston-Salem State since Big House Gaines, has had his contract extended.
Collins, who will start his seventh season at WSSU this month, was given a three-year extension by school officials.
"I thought coach Collins did a good job, especially down the stretch last season," athletics director Bill Hayes said. "He won the tournament championship and kept that team together — and it was a young team. They got to the playoffs and he brought them together and represented the school very well."
Collins, who was making around $97,000 a year, was given a raise to around $110,000 a year. The three-year extension will take him through the 2015-16 season.
