Barton College’s Bulldog Believers
Chip Hester had a vision. There were days during that long week back in September 2020 when the thermometer touched 90 degrees and the eastern North Carolina humidity felt thick enough to chew. Hester, the coach of the newly reestablished football program at Barton College in Wilson, drove one tractor and Todd Wilkinson, the school’s director of athletics, drove the other. Barton’s first class of 80 football recruits — including 31 uplifted by an improbable legacy they knew nothing about — worked in shifts to plant the sod for a field upon which they would soon practice as a team. Though none of them would put on a game uniform for another year, they were already Bulldogs. “Those guys literally laid the foundation of our program with their own sweat equity,” Hester says. “Fortunately, we’d recruited a bunch of tough country boys who were used to hard work and getting their hands dirty.”
