Calvin Albrecht - The Coaching Factory Hall of Fame Inductee

Southern Utah University proudly hosted its annual Coaching Factory Night of Honor & Hall of Fame Induction ceremony on February 6, 2016. Inducted into the Hall of Fame that evening was Calvin Albrecht from Beaver, Utah.

Calvin, a 1973 SUU grad, returned to his alma mater, Beaver High School, to begin a 30-year career that included coaching football, boys basketball, track and field, and cross country. He led his charges to 11 state championships in three sports over the years. His Beaver cagers earned trips to the state tournament in 18 of his 20 years as coach, winning four times, and he stands among the state leaders in basketball wins posted at one school, with 351.

He also racked up six state titles in boys track and field and another in cross country. He was Utah's coach of the year in both basketball and track and field, and for 22 years helped guide the Beaver football team to five state championship and four runner-up finishes.

Congratulations Calvin!
