Corrigan's Coaching Journey Comes Full Circle

By Sullivan Bortner, Duke Sports Information Intern

DURHAM, N.C.-- Entering his 39th year as a basketball coach, Jim Corrigan returned to Duke this past January, the place where his collegiate career began more than 40 years ago. In his new role with the women’s basketball program, Corrigan serves as a special assistant to head coach Joanne P. McCallie.

Corrigan walked-on to the Duke men’s team in the late 1970s during the tenure of head coach Bill Foster, eventually earning a scholarship by the time he graduated from the university in 1980.
