Field officially named for Warren

A balloon release was held at Sam Coopwood Park Friday night, Sept. 24, prior to the start of the Holly Springs Hawks game against Hatley. It commemorated the naming of the football field in memory of Danny Warren. He passed away on October 17, 2020, at the age of 52. He was a volunteer assistant football coach at Holly High for 25 years and a coach and sponsor of the Holly Springs Wildcats traveling baseball team. “Mr. Warren gave so much of his life, time and energy to do life-changing work with students through football,” said superintendent of education Irene Turnage in a recent interview. “Because he gave so much and asked for so little in return, I believe it is only fitting that his life work be recognized and highlighted every time someone attends or writes something about the football field, allowing his impact to continue to inspire generations to come through football.”
