Read last night where former Shocker great Carl Hall passed away. He fit the mold of great all around area athlete that fueled the glory days. Prayers to his family. RIP.

That is very sad. I was fortunate enough to meet and visit with Carl a couple of times in the last few years when he could make it out to a baseball game. Such a good guy and an incredible tragedy. All my prayers to his family and his memory.

That sucks. He was a great player and a better human being. RIP.Deuces Valley.
... No really, deuces.

Am I remembering correctly that Aaron Boone played with Carl either in summer ball or the minors and called him one of his best teammates?Last edited by WuShock16; March 4, 2024, 11:15 AM.78-65Comment

I found where I saw it. Gene mentioned it when Carl was being inducted into the Wichita Sports HOF.Originally posted by BostonWu View Post

I was fortunate to grow up just down the street from the Hall family. Missed playing with him at Campus by a couple years. All the stories of his genuine and caring attitude are completely true. Such a shitty loss for our community.Originally posted by BostonWu View Post
To piggyback on this post....what happened to recruiting locally? We used to have lots of top notch talent? Do we still?Comment
