UH Head COACH Kaddie Platt & former HOUSTON Player gives tribute to Flo Hyman and the Flo Hyman Collegiate Cup and CLINIC
|
“We are privileged to host the Flo Hyman Collegiate Cup Tournament and Clinic in honor of Flo Hyman. She is one of our Houston greats as well as USA Volleyball’s greats! When I was a young athlete, Flo Hyman was my favorite player because of her amazing abilities. Now, after hosting the tournament for three years I have listen to her former teammates and coaches speak about her as a person. Now, Flo is a favorite because of her caring character, generosity, inner courage, and amazing spirt. We are honored to host a tournament and clinic in honor of such an amazing women!”
Kaddie Platt Head Volleyball Coach University of Houston "It is with mixed emotions that I am here," Powell said. "Flo was the most recognized player in the world. She was a statue of greatness on the court and a great friend. Every player in the country should know more about Flo and the character traits she displayed every day, on and off the court.

Nelson former Head Coach at Houston
If Flo Hyman were here today, she would want all players to believe in themselves, teammates and coaches while honoring the sport, and respecting those at Houston. The University of Houston provided her the foundation to become one of the finest ambassadors the U.S. ever had. During her time as a Cougar, she loved going to class, training and representing a fine academic institution. She was given so many outstanding awards throughout her career, but the one that stands out the most to me is given by the Women's Sports Foundation, The Flo Hyman Memorial award. There are many states, cities, communities and universities that provide a similar award naming her and is given to any sport athlete that captures her dignity, spirit and commitment to excellence. Her final passion was becoming an advocate for gender equality in sport and for the passage of the Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1988. We join her in prayer and in thought recognizing and honoring her driving force-- that of helping others no matter what their social economic background. Everyone deserved an opportunity to succeed. Remember when she was offered a full scholarship in 1974 she chose to share the monies with her teammates. How many players would do that today?

The University of Houston provides fantastic resources in facilities and space to host three teams from across the country and several hundred youth for the clinic following the tournament. We will strive to continue to make the tournament and youth clinic bigger and better every year as well as educate those of Flo’s legacy and spirit.”
