In that year, he was also named to the WVIAC all-conference team.
In his four years at Salem, he scored over 2,000 points.
After graduating from Salem in 1980 with a degree in physical education, Carey was offered a position to be an assistant coach of the boys' team at the high school Flemington, West Virginia.
