Doesn’t look like any current UH players are participating which is a good thing in my opinion.
The SA reporting that Bob Nash’s wife, Domelynne, passed away last night. The cause of death is cancer, according to the story. Everything you read about Domelynne indicated she was a great person and a strong supporter of her husband and the university. Condolences to the Nash family.
My sincerest condolences to the entire Nash Ohana.
Truly a Sweet Person…
Such a Huge Loss, Separation for Whole Family
Coach Bob, Bobby & Ohana
Peace, Blessings Upon Blessings
