Roster to Swell with Walk-Ons

Add a few more names to Dartmouth's preseason roster for next fall as at least three incoming freshmen and a rising sophomore have indicated they want to walk on to the team. The rising soph, who went through spring practice and played in the Green-White scrimmage, is Nicholas Danford, a 5-foot-9, 180-pound safety from Rollinsford, N.H., and St. Thomas Aquinas H.S.. (bio information). Incoming freshman Dan Koh of Port Washington, N.Y., was nominated for the High School Heisman. As a football, basketball and lacrosse player he received the Citibank News 12 Long Island Scholar-Athlete Achievement Recognition Award. In a win over Hicksville last fall, the running quarterback had touchdown carries of 66, 40 and 4 yards while running for 190 yards on just 10 carries (link). Also headed Dartmouth's way are Dustin Posey, a 240-pound lineman from Fairbanks, AK, who previously lived in Mississippi and Michael Wu, a defensive lineman from the San Franciso Bay area.

The incoming recruit list has been posted with video clips of the recruits in action. Find them here.
