There are 2,252 reasons to remember Calabria at Blackhawk. That’s how many points he scored in his basketball career. A 6-foot-4 guard, Calabria is one of the WPIAL’s greatest shooters, making 66 3-pointers as a senior when he averaged 27 points and eight rebounds. He shot 60 percent as a junior and senior and was the primary reason Blackhawk was 62-2 in those two years. He won three WPIAL championships, a state title and the 1992 team is considered one of the WPIAL’s best in the past few decades. The Cougars won 32 games in a row and averaged 91 points a game. Calabria went on to play for the North Carolina Tar Heels and was part of an NCAA championship team as well as a Final Four team. He is one of the top 3-point shooters in North Carolina history and went on to play 16 seasons of professional ball overseas.
