The Utes honored Reddish, who turns 94 next week, with a video tribute commemorating a career spanning more than four decades, prior to Saturday morning’s alumni meet at Ute Natatorium.

“I can’t recognize them, but the names — I remember all of them,” Reddish said. “We were a big family. They were more like family. I never did get married so I didn’t have any kids.
