First-year assistants motivated to help Gregg Marshall lead in new era at WSU

It’s been nearly two decades since the last time Tyson Waterman has worked in the same gymnasium on the same team as Gregg Marshall.

Back in the 1999-2000 college basketball season, Waterman was playing for Marshall as Winthrop’s starting point guard. The duo completed a bottom-to-top rise in the Big South Conference as Waterman led the team to a conference title and the NCAA Tournament.

Waterman is reminded a lot of those days now that he has returned to team up with Marshall, this time as a first-year college basketball assistant at Wichita State.

“All these years later and GM still has that same mojo,” Waterman said.
