LaVetter's 1978 team went 28-0 and is often considered the leading boys high school basketball team in Tucson history.
Greg Hansen Roland LaVetter, who coached Pueblo High School to back-to-back state basketball championships in 1977 and 1978, died Saturday in Tucson. He was 82.
“Without a doubt, everything I learned — and not just in basketball, but in life — came from Pueblo and what Coach taught me,’’ Lever said in 1988. “The things he started there still carry over." "The idea of going out on top never occurred to me," LaVetter said that spring."That’s an ego thing. I’ve never been in coaching for an ego. I’ve been coaching because I love the idea."
