Youngstown State men's basketball coach Jerrod Calhoun is signed through the 2024-25 season.

According to Ron Strollo, Executive Director of Athletics, the contract extension was worked out a few weeks ago, and this is year one of that extension.

Calhoun, now in his fourth season, is 49-69 with the Penguins. This season they're 11-10 overall and 6-10 in the conference and host Purdue Fort Wayne tonight and Saturday.

Last season Calhoun led the Penguins to an 18-15 overall record and 10-8 in the Horizon League.

The 18 wins were the most in nine years.

The extension also makes it easier to recruit where potential players know the coach is locked in place.
