Chad Holbrook 'fought like heck' to become College of Charleston's new baseball coach

Posted Jul 22, 2017
In a coaching search that took a few unforeseen twists, Chad Holbrook never lost the belief that he was the right man to oversee the College of Charleston’s baseball program. “I’d be lying if I didn’t say it was a little bit of a roller coaster. It was,” Holbrook said. “But these searches...they can take turns. There were a lot of things out of my control.” (Charleston Post and Courier)
