WSSU gives Hayes a contract extension

WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina  --  Athletics Director Bill Hayes of Winston-Salem State, who is at the top of his game as an administrator, has been rewarded with a three-year contract extension.

Chancellor Donald Reaves announced the extension Thursday afternoon, after an earlier unanimous vote by the school’s board of trustees in a conference call.

“It’s phenomenal,” Reaves said of Hayes’ accomplishments since his hiring in January 2010. “When I hired Bill, I knew he was a seasoned athletics director, a football coach, and he’d been around and knew the ropes.

“I needed somebody then to get me from that transition from the MEAC and back into the CIAA and all that stuff that came along with it.”
