If Providence Day (3-0) should upset Charlotte Catholic (4-0) Thursday evening, one more North Carolina high school head football coach will join the coveted 300-career victory club.
Bruce Hardin will join a gathering of seven head football coaches, including former Rocky Mount head coach B.W. Holt, should his Providence Day team beat another club member in Charlotte Catholic's Jim Oddo and his Cougar squad on the road.
Hardin got a great majority of his wins while coaching at Kannapolis Brown.
Also close to the mark is Murphy's David Gentry. He needs just three more wins to reach that coveted milestone.
Here are those seven current members with their total victories going into this football season:
N.C.'s Winningest High School Football Coaches
1. Bob Paroli (387 at six schools, including Douglas Byrd and Fayetteville 71st)
2. Jack Holley (380 at three schools, including Wallace-Rose Hill)
3. Tom Brown (352 at Bunker Hill and Maiden)
4. B.W. Holt (321 at six schools, including Starmount, Rocky Mount)
T5. Jim Oddo (305 at Charlotte Catholic)
T5. Daryl Allen (305 at Ahoskie/Hertford County)
7. Babe Howell (301 at Sylva-Webster/Smoky Mountain, Avery County).
