Ah Larry Kennan. After getting his autograph sometime ago, I realized I didn’t get Larry’s autograph on this lone World League card in the Pro Set Series II insert set.
Kennan coached at the University of Incarnate Word for 4 seasons, compiling a record of 20-48 from 2014-2017. He’s retired and as of 2020 lives in San Antonio, Texas.
He responded to my request for his autograph in a very short amount of time and wrote on my letter, “My pleasure”. I had to do the digging for Larry’s address on my own, and was very surprised after getting a hit on him, that other people contacted me for his address as well.
Matt was easy enough to find online that I shot these last two cards out to him. I absolutely love this Leaf Rookies & Stars card. It’s not just the figurative elements and dynamic pose, but the lighting is really what does it for me in this one. Great card.
Hunter played for the Nevada Wolfpack from 1982-85.
Selected in the 3rd round of the 1986 draft by the Seattle Seahawks.
In 1987 became a starter in the secondary and a gunner on special teams.
Blocked punt in 1991 that led to score against Steelers in 27-7 win.
Also picked off a pass that season that he returned for TD against Raiders.
Played for the Seahawks through 1994.
Finished out career playing one final season in 1995 with the Arizona Cardinals, picking off 2 passes.

NOTES:
Patrick appears in not only Tecmo Bowl but also in Tecmo Super Bowl, but didn’t have that many cards. He had a few off-brand and Topps cards, but these represented the only set needs I really had. He had a really interesting helmet. I believe that it was the same issue that the World League used during 1991-92.
