Cavanagh’s Tortured Life

Posted by: adamw

This is a great article about a very unfortunate topic:

http://www.mercurynews.com/sharks/ci_17245875

From the San Jose Mercury-News … It confirms something not explicitly stated at the time — that former Harvard star Tom Cavanagh committed suicide. It goes into details of his mental deterioration and schizophrenia that he hid for a long time but became more acute over the last year.

I remember Tom Cavanagh’s time at Harvard, and he was everything that the article says — an “honest” player, a hard worker, whose play “exceeded his skill.”
