Kaylor ’62: It’s Never Too Late

Published on June 11, 2025

Gary R. Kaylor ’62 will soon do something most men and women do at a much younger age: Retire from athletic competition. In late July, he will travel to Des Moines, Iowa, to participate in the National Senior Games, where he will play in his final formal basketball game. Making Kaylor’s retirement more interesting is that he did not begin playing on organized teams until he was 70 years old. And it’s surprising to learn that he did not play basketball—or any other varsity sport—at VMI.
