Damien Price Named Basketball Coach at Morehead High School
Posted Jun 20, 2017
Former UNC basketball player Damien Price was named the new Morehead head basketball coach last week. Price, 34, turned down scholarship opportunities back in his playing days in order to walk-on at UNC. He made the JV team his freshman season and then was moved up to the Tar Heels varsity roster for his final three years before graduating in 2004.
