Stony Brook assistant joins Head Coach Fred Castro's staff
YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) — Adam Call, an assistant coach for Stony Brook University's women's basketball team for the past two seasons, has been named an assistant coach at Eastern Michigan University, Head Coach Fred Castro announced today, May 20.
"Adam is one of the great young minds in our game," Castro said. "His expertise in breaking down analytics combined with his feel for the game will be a huge asset. In two years at Stony Brook, he has built great recruiting ties on the East Coast. I'm extremely excited he has joined our staff."
At Stony Brook, Call worked with the guards while also aiding in scouting, practice planning and game planning.
In two years with the Seawolves, he was part of a team that made back-to-back appearances in the Women's Basketball Invitational (WBI) while posting 17 victories in each season. In 2015-16, he helped mentor freshman point guard Davion Wingate to All-Rookie Team honors from the America East Conference. Wingate started 14 games at point guard, averaging 8.7 points per game over 30 contests. She won two Rookie of the Week awards in a span of three weeks from Jan. 11-25, scoring in double figures in 12 of 13 games from Dec. 18-Feb. 3.
In Call's first season, he assisted with the development of America East second team guard Kori Bayne-Walker and All-Defensive Team selection, Jessica Ogunnorin. Bayne-Walker led the conference in assists, averaging 5.26 per game, and finished the season ranked eighth in school history in assists.
The Norman, Okla. native arrived at Stony Brook after spending the 2013-14 campaign as the Director of Player Development at the University of Washington, where he helped guide the Huskies to a 20-win season and berth in the WNIT Quarterfinals.
Call was the Director of Basketball Operations at Northwestern from 2011-13, where he ran Joe McKeown Basketball Camps and supervised managerial staff, the video coordinator and interns.
The Horned Frogs of Texas Christian University made a national postseason trip in each of Call's three seasons as video coordinator, including the NCAA Tournament in 2008-09 and 2009-10. TCU claimed the Mountain West Conference regular season title in 2009-10 and played in the WNIT in 2010-11. He began his career as a sophomore at the University of Oklahoma, where he served three seasons as the student manager from 2004-07. The Sooners claimed two Big XII Conference Tournament and regular season championships and went to the NCAA Tournament every year.
The programs he has worked for have qualified for the NCAA Tournament five times, including trips to the NCAA "Sweet 16" in 2005-06 and 2006-07.
Call holds a bachelor's degree in international area studies from the University of Oklahoma and a master's degree in liberal arts from TCU.
