NORFOLK, Va. – In his nearly six decades as a basketball coach, Paul Webb touched tens of thousands of lives, including the man who currently resides in the Virginia Governor’s Mansion.
Gov. Glenn Youngkin, who grew up in Virginia Beach and played basketball at Norfolk Academy and later Rice University, recalled on a visit to Old Dominion this past weekend how Webb made a huge impression on him when he attended the Paul Webb Basketball Camps.
Youngkin attended the Priority Automotive ODU Spring Football Game on Saturday and spoke to several hundred people who donated thousands of dollars to children’s charities. He began his remarks by noting the impact that Webb, the former ODU men’s basketball coach, had on his life.
