Greg Kampe Finalist for Coach of the Year


Oakland University coach Greg Kampe has been named as a finalist for the 2011 Jim Phelan National Coach of the Year Award and 2011 Hugh Durham Mid-Major Coach of the Year Award. Coach Kampe had as good a year as any and should stand a good chance of winning both awards. Weird that Shaka Smart of VCU was left off both lists, not sure if that was an error or not.
