MADISON - Ty Pelton-Byce’s parents wanted what was best for their son, and when that meant playing at Harvard, they supported it. Though John Byce and Alicia Pelton were both Wisconsin Badgers standouts – in hockey, baseball and track – the Madison couple understood their son’s calling to leave the nest.
“We really want him to have his own path,” Alicia Pelton said. “As much as everyone wanted him to go to Wisconsin – neighbors and friends and family wanted it in a way – there can be added pressure to go to Wisconsin and be a legacy player.”
