The boys and girls of Delta Junction were offered a two-day basketball clinic hosted by the assistant women’s basketball coach for the University of Alaska Anchorage, Jalon McCullough.

McCullough has had an impressive basketball career that began in Washington and then in Alaska where he appeared in 77 games. Prior to college, McCullough attended Monroe High School where his team advanced to the ASAA state title game every year he played – winning three titles and only suffering five losses in his four seasons.

When asked about what the kids will experience in the two-day clinic, McCullough’s face lit up and quickly shared, “How to be a good teammate, how to be on time, and how to be committed.”

McCullough continued by explaining that during the two-day clinic, students will work on the fundamental basics like how to dribble the ball, how to be more comfortable being able to pass the ball, and how to successfully catch the ball.
