Former Cawood all-stater Greg Coldiron, who later served as a high school basketball coach, was back in coaching this season as an assistant for the Wallins basketball teams led by his grandson, Treyce Spurlock, who starred at Harlan County High School and later played at Morehead. Coldiron was the first all-state player at Cawood High School and first Kentucky All Star from Cawood, both in 1978. He went on to play four seasons at Morehead State University, and then returned home to begin his coaching career. He was an assistant coach at Cawood under Mike Jones when the Trojans won a 52nd District Tournament title in 1986 and finished as 13th Region runner-up. He became the head coach at Cawood in the 1990 season and led the Trojans to district titles in 1991 and 1992. He later led Powell County to a 14th Region title. He was also a head coach at Maysville and Russell County.
