Holder hits 100 milestone
Holder
Ten years ago, Marty Holder figured he had coached his last basketball game. Five years later he decided to help Statesboro head coach Lee Hill as an assistant, and three years later he was heading up the Lady Blue Devils.“I coached my last game for the Johnson boys back in 2009,” said Holder. “I decided to get into middle school administration and really didn’t have the desire to get back into coaching, let alone coaching girls' basketball.”Holder said many factors went into his decision to stop coaching including his desire to get into administration and to be able to have a bigger impact on the students in Bulloch County.“I wanted to do more things within the community,” said Holder. “I was a middle school athletic director and an assistant principal. I feel like I was able to help more kids in our community find their path and be able to graduate.
