En route to its second NCAA title in 2004, UConn advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the 12th time under Coach Calhoun, making the program one of only five schools to advance to national postseason play for the last 17 consecutive seasons. Jim Calhoun is the only coach in the history of the BIG EAST Conference to have been named BIG EAST Conference Coach of the Year four times. He earned his first BIG EAST Coach of the Year award in 1989-90 and also won the honor following the 1993-94, 1995-96 and 1997-98 seasons. John Thompson of Georgetown and Lou Carnesecca of St. John’s each earned the prestigious honor three times. In October of 2004, Jim Calhoun was named winner of the 2005 “Legends of Coaching Award” from the John R. Wooden Awards Committee. Coach Calhoun will receive the award from the Los Angeles Athletic Club in April of 2005, becoming just the seventh recipient of the prestigious honor. The award honors college coaches who exemplify Coach John Wooden’s high standards of coaching success and personal achievements. Previous recipients of the Legends of Coaching Award include: Dean Smith, Mike Krzyzewski and Lute Olson. In recognition of the dedication and commitment of Jim Calhoun and his family to cardiology research, the entire cardiology program at the University of Connecticut Health Center has been named the “Pat and Jim Calhoun Cardiology Center”. A formal naming ceremony recognizing the on-going work of the Calhoun family was held in the spring of 2004. Jim and Pat Calhoun have a long-standing involvement with the Franciscan Life Center, counseling and education center operated in Meriden, CT by the Franciscan Sisters of the Eucharist. The Calhouns have been involved annually in fund-raising activities by the Franciscan Sisters. Jim Calhoun has been honored with the “Saint Francis Award” for his dedication to Christian values and outstanding athletic achievements and in 1998 the Franciscan Sisters dedicated an outdoor basketball area, “Calhoun’s Court”, in honor of the UConn head coach at the Franciscan Life Center in Meriden. |
