Our RB Baseball family offers our deepest condolences to Coach Terry Whitney and his family with the passing of his father. Coach Hap Whitney was synonymous with sports at all levels in Columbia for a long time.
“This morning, we lost a great man in Hap Whitney. Hap brought Mizzou Wrestling into the modern era and helped bring Mizzou to the national stage. He was a mentor, a great coach, a great supporter of the program, and special friend to me. Prayers to all the Whitney family.”
