DDN: Nagy awed by Calvin’s 44-point night

Excerpt from the Dayton Daily News

Wright State coach Scott Nagy is no fan of the newfangled scoreboards that are detailed enough to show individual points.

Though he’s tolerated it at the Nutter Center, he’s against anything that might make players susceptible to thinking selfishly.

But even he couldn’t keep from taking occasional peeks when Trey Calvin twirled the digits at Youngstown State last week.

“I saw he had 17 points very quickly. He made every shot for us. And then, I looked up after a significant portion of the second half — it was under the 10-minute mark — and he only had 19 points,” Nagy sad.

“I knew he’d slowed down. I didn’t realize it was THAT much. I really didn’t pay attention much after that, and then it’s 44.”

The 6-foot senior scored five unanswered points in the final 19 seconds of regulation to force overtime, putting him at 24. He then scored 20 in the three extra sessions in a 91-89 loss.
