The Oktoks Western Wheel in Alberta, Can., has a story and photo recognizing Ryder Stone's role in helping Dartmouth win a share of the Ivy League championship. The story begins this way:
Sharing the rock left a former Holy Trinity Academy Knight’s opponents green with envy.
That would be Big Green and Ivy green.
Ryder Stone, a 2013 HTA graduate, was the leading rusher for the Dartmouth Big Green which shared the Ivy League football title this season with Harvard and Penn with 7-1 league records (Dartmouth was 9-1 overall).
“That was our goal coming into the season to win the Ivy League and to be able to achieve that, it means a lot,” said Stone, a sophomore at Dartmouth.
Also from the story:
Stone has produced in the classroom as well as the gridiron. He has a 3.5 GPA and is majoring in environmental science and is a public policy minor.
“Going to Dartmouth is the best decision I ever made,” Stone said. “Next year, I hope to be the outright starter and hopefully we will have the same success as a team.”
He hasn’t forgotten his roots — Stone was one of the guest speakers at the Holy Trinity Academy Knights awards banquet on Dec. 17.
