The son of North Carolina State basketball coach Sidney Lowe pleaded guilty Monday to a dozen charges connected to a March 2007 home invasion.

Sidney Lowe II, 23, pleaded guilty to six counts each of robbery with a dangerous weapon and second-degree kidnapping.

He also entered an Alford plea to the following charges: conspiracy to commit robbery with a dangerous weapon, possession of a weapon on school property, possession with intent to sell and deliver marijuana and possession of a controlled substance. The first of the charges is linked to a shooting at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

In an Alford plea, a person can acknowledge the evidence in a case would lead to a conviction but still not admit guilt to a crime.

Lowe II is expected to be sentenced Tuesday.

Brian Martin, 20, will also be in court to face his own charges in connection with the shooting.

For some (somewhat) positive Wolfpack news, JJ Hickson shined in his NBA debut. He gave some credit to Sidney Lowe for preparing him for the NBA. Hopefull highly-touted high school players are paying attention. John Wall? Lorenzo Brown?

why is this under the "Sports" headlines......???? Just because his father is a coach that doesn't make it Sports Headline news....................!!!!!

i know i will get slammed for this but i do not care: his dad should be arrested for impersonating a coach.

Take this thug article off and put something interesting to read on here.

there are no guarantees in life, and that includes children maturing into responsible adults, even when given positive parental guidance and high moral and ethical standards
