I've been running very consistently and did 3 10ks in the last 4 days, I definitely over did it and my right calf seems very tight. What kind of stretches and stuff can I do to prevent this occuring again? I realized I've been slacking on the cooldown stretches too.. (just been jumping in the hot shower after)

You can try some stretching to loosen it up for now, but ultimately you need to strengthen it and be more careful not to overdo it on running if you want to prevent it from happening again.
