North Buncombe High School named Joey Bryson as its new head boys' basketball coach. Bryson replaces David Rhoney, who left the BlackHawks after 12 years to lead Erwin's program.
Bryson, 34, led the North Buncombe junior varsity squad last season and worked as an assistant on Rhoney's staff. He also has three years of head coaching experience on the high school level at several stops in Georgia.
However, he is a native to Western North Carolina and a graduate of West Henderson High School. His first head coaching job, in fact, was in the Henderson County School System leading Rugby Middle School's boys' team.
He is a former classmate of NBHS Head Baseball Coach Wesley King. Bryson said he and King talked about the opportunities at North Buncombe and the strength of both the academic and athletic departments.
"My wife and I prayed that another head coaching job would come available and thankfully it did," Bryson said of the new opportunity.
