Season Outlook:
16th year head coach Steve Kersten took responsibility for the 4-5 season last year. For a school that has been to the state finals in the last 10 years, not making the playoffs is unacceptable in Hornetland.
But Williamston has Charlotte transfer Sy Barnett joining the squad this season. And his all-purpose talent will a major plus for this team. The schedule is manageable early on, but the CAAC White is tough with Catholic and Portland expected to be excellent.
It may come down to the last two weeks of the year as to whether the Hornets return to the postseason in 2016.
