“I remember playing at the outdoor courts,” he said. “You start at 7 in the morning when they’re beating on your door to wake you up, and you basically don’t stop until 9 or 10 at night.”
Now as Fairmont State University’s new head men’s basketball coach, Calhoun gets to create memories. That’s certainly been the case at this week’s four-day youth camp held at Joe Retton Arena, which concludes today.
