Larry Reynolds is an American college basketball coach, currently co-head coach at NCAA Division II Stanislaus State. Reynolds has previously been head coach at Cal State San Bernardino and Division I Long Beach State.

Key Information

Reynolds played college basketball from UC Riverside, where he was named the California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) Player of the Year in 1975. He began his coaching career at his alma mater, serving as an assistant coach to John Masi from 1979 to 1995. He moved up to the Division I University of San Francisco as an assistant, then secured his first head coaching job at Cal State San Bernardino in 1997. Reynolds led the Coyotes to a five-year record of 110–35 (.759), including four consecutive NCAA tournament appearances and four consecutive CCAA Coach of the Year awards. In 2001–02, Reynolds led the team to a 28–2 record.

He parlayed the season's success into a move to Division I, taking the reins at Long Beach State. Reynolds was at Long Beach for five seasons, amassing a record of 63–83. In his last season, Reynolds and Big West Conference Player of the Year Aaron Nixon won both the conference regular season and tournament championships. However, Long Beach State found NCAA violations occurring on Reynolds watch and following the 2006–07 season, Reynolds was fired.[1][2]

In 2009, Reynolds was hired as head coach at California State University, Stanislaus (Stanislaus State).[3] In 2017, it was announced that Reynolds was suffering from Parkinson's disease and that the school would hire a co-head coach to reduce his workload. Ultimately the school hired Paul Trevor of San Francisco State.[4]

Career

Entry into acting

Larry Reynolds began his acting career in Canadian television during the late 1950s, appearing in early anthology and dramatic series produced primarily by the CBC. His first documented roles included playing Henry Livesy in two episodes of the TV series On Camera between 1957 and 1958, as well as appearances in Folio (1958), Heritage (1958), and multiple episodes of Encounter from 1958 to 1961, where he portrayed characters such as Flying Officer Ibsin and Frank Phillips across nine episodes. Throughout the 1960s, he continued with guest and recurring parts in Canadian television, including roles in Playdate (1961–1963), Scarlett Hill (1962–1963), The Littlest Hobo (1963), and notably The Forest Rangers (1963–1965), where he appeared as Sgt. Stewart or Sergeant Stewart in six episodes. In addition to acting, Reynolds performed stunts in the short film The Scribe in 1966, marking his earliest known credit in that capacity. He sustained a steady presence in Canadian TV through the 1970s with roles in series such as Seaway (1966), Wojeck (1966–1968), Police Surgeon (1971–1975), and others, often in supporting or guest capacities. His entry into more prominent, major productions came in 1979 with the role of Nils Bohr in the television mini-series A Man Called Intrepid, in which he appeared in three episodes. The following year, he portrayed Secretary of Defense Morrison in the feature film Virus (1980). These credits represented a transition toward higher-profile work in television mini-series and film, establishing him within the Canadian production landscape.

Notable film roles

Larry Reynolds was primarily a supporting actor in feature films, with most of his roles being small or minor in scale. His most prominent performance came as Mayor Hanniger in the Canadian slasher film My Bloody Valentine (1981), where he portrayed the mayor of the small mining town Valentine's Bluffs and served as a key authority figure. As the father of T.J. Hanniger, the character is involved in discussions to reinstate the town's Valentine's Day dance after a 20-year suspension due to a past mining disaster and related murders, and he receives a threatening package containing a human heart warning against holding the event. Despite the historical trauma and emerging threats, his position contributes to the decision-making that propels the film's central killing spree. Later in his career, Reynolds appeared in two small supporting roles in 1994 releases, playing Wedding Band in the action thriller Blown Away and Trustee #2 in the college satire PCU. These parts exemplified the brief but consistent nature of his contributions to theatrical cinema.
