Roanoke College

Barnes' athletic career at Roanoke was expressed by his success on the basketball court where Barnes gave himself unselfishly for the good of the team.

Leading rebounder and free-throw shooter for the 1971-’72 team, Barnes was the team leader in field goal percentage as well for two seasons.  He was selected to the All-Mason Dixon team in 1971 and '72.

His leadership, calm composure, and sense of humor added to the total balance of the national championship team in 1972.
