The VTSU Johnson Men's Basketball team has added shooting guard and small forward, Jamar Callum, to the 2024-25 roster. Callum, hailing from West Palm Beach, FL, was recognized as an All-Conference Honorable Mention athlete during his time representing the Palm Beach Lakes HS Rams and plans to major in Interdisciplinary Studies with a minor in Business as he continues his career as a Badger. Coach Alfred Johnson is enthusiastic regarding Callum's future at Johnson, "We are very excited with the addition of Jamar, in becoming a Badger! He is an athletic wing with a high IQ and defensive skills, both on the ball and in the passing lanes. And not discounting, he is an able scorer."
