| May 30, 2008 Calhoun, facing more skin cancer, will keep coaching
|
STORRS, Conn. (AP) - Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun says he is
being treated for his second bout of skin cancer in a year and says
he wants to keep coaching.
The 66-year-old Hall of Fame coach says a lump removed from his
neck on May 6 was malignant. His doctors told him that lymph nodes
and other surrounding tissue removed at the same time were free of
cancer. He is scheduled to undergo six weeks of radiation
treatments next month at the UConn Health Center. His doctors say
there should be no long-term effects from the radiation and expect
Calhoun to return to a normal lifestyle, including coaching.
Calhoun was treated for skin cancer on his cheek last year.
Doctors say the skin cancer is unrelated to the prostate cancer he
had in 2003. The coach discussed his health Friday during a news
conference at Gampel Pavilion.
In his 21 seasons at UConn, Calhoun has turned a regional
program into a perennial national powerhouse that includes two NCAA
titles (1999, 2004).
