In this episode of the PREP Athletics podcast, we welcome Cushing Academy's head boys basketball coach James Cormier.  James spent two years at Proctor Academy before playing at Le Moyne College.  After his college career he got into coaching and worked at Northfield Mount Hermon under legendary coach, John Carroll.  From here he worked as an assistant at Dartmouth where his father was head coach at the time.  James has been at Cushing for over six years and has had great success to include coaching current NBA player David Duke Jr of the Brooklyn Nets.

In this conversation we talk about his experience at prep school, choosing a college, what he learned coaching under John Carroll and his father, the Ivy League, Cushing Academy and much more.  I really enjoyed this conversation with James.
