South Brunswick Opening
- Thread starter mckenrickr
- Start date
IDK but I read they have had over 30 applicants. Lewis did a great job there. SB has 1300 kids and they had to play four 4A schools each year. Under Lewis, SB beat NH, Laney and Ashley and lost to Hoggard 10-9 in 2019.
would the west Brunswick coach come over? Coach Handy is from the triad area and did great things at Randleman
Saw the Job was reposted after the Board Meeting on Tuesday, Any Idea Why it’s reposted again?
I have been waiting for NB to open up but SB would be a great way to go
I don't think so Handy is a very very good coach and someone I have coached against and known for more than a decade. Great guy solid coach I would see why after year 1 that WB would be unhappy with Handy
And that is why Coaches don’t resign their current job until all the approvals are done. Even though fans want the coach gone as soon as they hear he may have another job.
WB had a few years of low talent on JV. In 2020-21 they were shut out very game. WB typically has a good amount of athletes and size but it has dried up over the last few years.
I meant to say I can not see why they would be unhappy.
NB isn't opening anytime soon I would venture to say. Seems like that coach is locked in there. SB would be a great destination. Already have some good assistants and great facilities.
Yikes - I hope whoever was planning to take that job had a back-up plan in place or hadn't backed out of where they were at previously yet.
Congratulations to Former Mooresville Assistant- Former South Rowan HC in Daniel Yow being named the head coach of South Brunswick
Thank you for your time at Mooresville and Good luck at SB! If he can get them to .500 in year or 2 that will be a positive direction for them as SB is in a very tough league

They will needs to win all their non conf games. SB simply doesn’t match up well with Hoggard, NH and Laney. Laney has turned the corner with their new coach and players aren’t leaving like they have been in the past and their JV teams have been very good the last few years with large numbers. NB has turned things in the right direction and they are typically bigger and more athletic than SB. Topsails new coaching staff have them moving in the right direction as well especially on defense. Ashley is playing much better with their new coaching staff and actually won a playoff game and should have won 2. WB and SB are the only 2 teams struggling at this point. I could see SB losing all their conf games next year except maybe WB.
Coach Lewis did a great job there. SB is in a bad conf for them.
If I am remembering right based off the new 8 way split. They are currently playing with 4A numbers against 3 8A(Hoggard, Laney, Ashley), 1 7A(Topsail), 1 6A (Hanover), and 2 5A (WB, NB). If State decided to realign the Conferences with only two classifications (1A/2A, 3A/4A) split in each conference their schedule could look a lot different in a few years.
Unlike all these other "know-it-all mouthpieces" on here, I back up where I get my info and provide the source!!! You folks must be jealous of HSOT!!!

That is what needs to happen. Southport is growing fast but there is still a lot of retired people moving in so the growth at SB will not increase equally with the growth of Brunswick Co. NB will be 6A and the 7A soon. WB will to grow as quickly as NB but it’s will follow suit. Brunswick Co is the fastest growing Co in the country.
Well, we will see. There is usually not a lot of top notch coaches that want to go there. Coach Lewis decided to get out of coaching for 10 years. When he decided to come back he wanted to stay in the area. He took the East Columbus job which may have been one of the worse football coaching jobs in the state. Then when SB came open he took it. He was the right guy for the job and turned them around. The area is awesome, the football demographic isnt.
Ole, I know the area is awesome. I have relatives that live about 10 minutes from S.B.. I would love to live in that area.
