CHARLOTTE, North Carolina – When Preston Holmes played at Forestview High, he helped the Jaguars to a pair of Big South Conference titles and a berth in the state championship game, even earning All-Gazette honors.Some might think major college basketball or NBA was in their future after such success.
Instead, Holmes entered Fayetteville State University knowing he wanted to be a coach – and that dream will start being realized next season at his college alma mater.
A 2010 Forestview High graduate, Holmes’ college career ended with the Broncos’ loss to Winston-Salem State at Charlotte’s Time Warner Cable Arena in Friday’s CIAA tournament semifinals. (Livingstone won the championship on Saturday in a 106-91 victory over Winston-Salem State.)
But Holmes is set to graduate from Fayetteville State in May and will pursue a Master’s degree at the school while also serving as a Broncos assistant coach.
