When Braden Holloway first became the head coach of N.C. State’s men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams in 2011, he had lofty goals and high expectations.
“I just wanted to have two equal teams that were quality programs on the national scene,” he said, “and that every year, we’re vying for a conference championship.”
Holloway, an N.C. State graduate, has done that with the men’s team, and he’s starting to create a consistent contender with the women’s team as well.
Ranked No. 7 in the country, the women’s swimming and diving team is having one of its best seasons.
