Taylor Vit, who was co-captain for UK's club hockey team, has passed away from complications suffered in a severe car accident on Sunday. He was an amazing player and I had absolutely loved getting to see him play the past couple of years since he transferred. Actually I had just spend a weekend with my fiance (she came to Lexington to visit) and we were in attendance on Saturday night which as it turned out was Taylor's final game. I can vividly remember my fiance asking "who is the best player this year" and I told her to look for a player named "Vit." He was one of those players I will always remember when I look back at my time here at UK. I am still in a little bit of disbelief and I hope that the family can get through this. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Vit family.

I know.... I am still pretty shocked. It is like losing a close friend you know.

The boards on campus that always have the schedule and games have had flowers, cards and posters on it this week.... It is soooo soooo sad to drive by and see it.
