Trumbower to get Calvin’s Scholarship

Posted by thetribehasspoken on August 17, 2006

The Roanoke Times reported today that the scholarship used the season prior by Calvin Baker will be given to Provost award winner Adam Trumbower. I am glad a great kid like him finally gets a schollie, but am not so excited about the increased playing time in his future the Times suggests:

William and Mary men’s basketball coach Tony Shaver has extended a scholarship to senior Adam Trumbower, a walk-on guard from Cave Spring, where he was a first-team All-Group AA selection in 2003. Trumbower could be in line for increased playing time with the departure of Calvin Baker, whose transfer to Virginia also opened up a scholarship.

Trumbower is a great kid who gives a spark off the bench and always gives everything he has and more, but he just isn’t athletic enough to be anything more than a role player. Hopefully it won’t be an issue, as many think McFadden will step in and get a large chunk of the guard PT anyway.

That’s all I got, hopefully this is the last post on this site(move coming this weekend…..hopefully)
