He led the league every year in barked shins, scraped elbows and banged up knees. He was the "Pete Rose' in the hustle category. Arms flaying and legs assailing as he dove after loose balls or dove into the pile of players going after a jump ball call.

I graduated in 1970 from Mansfield, Ohio, Senior High School. I came from a big sports crazy family. After graduation, i was working at a Manner's Big Boy restaurant to make some money for college.

I never met Larry Siegfried, only watched him as a young boy from Illinois.
I became an Ohio State fan watching that group of outstanding players. He was not only a great player but as I hear more stories, an outstanding human being. Obviously, Coach Taylor's lessons were taken to heart by Larry and the rest is history. God bless you Larry Siegfried. I hope to meet you some day in heaven.

Tina and Girls, I want to express my sincere condolences to you and know that you are all in my prayers. I was on vacation that week and didn't realize Larry had passed. I just found out this morning about your loss. With my deepest sympathy, Linda

I am truly sorry for your loss, especially since Larry was still a young man. I was in my teens when i watched Larry and the other Celtics, and he soon became one of my favorite players. I have a picture of him in my workout room. It is displayed right alongside John Havlicek. I hope you have nothing but fond memories, as i do.
