Several weeks back this blog had an item about former Dartmouth placekicker Erik Hinterbichler '06. For an interesting 2002 New York Times profile of Hinterbichler, click here. From the story:
Hinterbichler was recently named a first-team all-American place-kicker by USA Today and a second-team kicker by Student Sports magazine, a prominent high school publication. But he has yet to be offered a college football scholarship, and he was not part of the nationwide letter-of-intent day Feb. 6, when top high school players make commitments to Division I programs.Various spinoffs of the "Read Option" are all the rage in college football these days. What is it? A regular reader sent along this link.
And today's trivia question: What college once had 22 members of the Phi Beta Kappa honor society on its football team?
The answer: Dartmouth in 1925.
And now we're off for Burlington, Vt., to watch that certain Hanover High senior compete ... in a robotic contest.
