CF Pete Taylor tribute
- Thread starter ChrisMWilliams
- Start date
In the late 80's KIOA was on the third floor of General Growth. My husband was an architect with GG and would take our young son to work with him some evenings. Alex would take along his Little Tyke Trike and ride that thingup and down the hall as fast as he could. More than a few times he didn't have complete control and would crash into KIOA's door. One night the door opened and there stood Pete Taylor. He had come to see what was happening in the hall. He knelt down and talked to Alex and asked his favorite team at which he replied Cyclones but when asked his favorite player he answered with Chris Street. Pete patted Alex's red head and told him he had made good choices.

Pete's loss was so huge from both emotional and functional aspects of Cyclone athletics. For one thing, LE was never the same after he was gone.
The good thing is that John Walters seems to be getting more and more 'Pete like' each season.

Well no kidding, he was only the coach for another month. Wasn't Pete a buffer between Bruce and Larry?
