OUR STORY
Basketball Training Built for the 740
740 Hoop Factory was created to solve a problem that every serious basketball player in the 740 knows too wellthe lack of local, basketball-specific training resources. No more 90-minute drives. No more settling for generic programs. Just expert skill development, right here in Jackson, Ohio.
MEET THE FOUNDER
Caleb Wallis
Caleb Wallis is a former college basketball player turned trainer with a passion for long-term athlete development and leadership both on and off the court.
Standing at just 5'8", Caleb was consistently undersized for his position throughout his playing career. He relied heavily on skill development, basketball IQ, and relentless work ethic to compete at a high level. His game was built through intentional training, attention to detail, and repetitionthe same principles that now shape his approach to player development at 740 Hoop Factory.
During his senior year of high school, Caleb scored nearly 600 points, averaging 24.5 points per game and 5 assists per game while reaching the 1,000-point milestone. He earned First Team All-State honors, League Player of the Year, and District Player of the Year recognition.
At the collegiate level, Caleb played his first two seasons at the University of Rio Grande (NAIA) before transferring to Asbury University in Lexington, Kentucky (NCAA Division III), where he completed his final two seasons. Across his college career, he was a 4-year starter who earned First Team All-Region honors and scored over 1,000 career points.
Growing up in the 740 area, Caleb experienced firsthand the lack of local basketball development resources, often traveling 90 minutes to receive quality training. That experience inspired him to create opportunities closer to home for athletes who are serious about improving their game.
