Coached Five Seasons In The 1970s
BOULDER — Bill Mallory, one of three head coaches to lead the University of Colorado to a title in its former conference, the Big Eight, passed away Friday afternoon. He was 82.
Mallory suffered a fall near his home in Bloomington, Ind., this past Tuesday (May 22) and suffered a brain injury in the process. He underwent emergency surgery to relieve pressure on the brain, but there was no improvement and he was moved to an area hospice on Thursday.
"Our condolences to the Mallory family for Bill's untimely passing," said CU athletic director Rick George.
