Palo Alto Online has a story about Dartmouth quarterback Jack Heneghan joining the San Francisco 49ers that includes this from the Big Green senior:
"It's real exciting because I've grown up watching the games and for me, this is the team I love. It also completes one of my career goals, playing in the NFL has been a dream and something I've wanted for a long time. I'm just looking forward to getting started and help the team in any way I can."
The Sacramento Bee writes about Heneghan and the Press Democrat has capsules of Quarterback Jack and the Niners' other signees.

The NFL Draft is in the books and the CFL Draft is just a couple of days away. Dartmouth senior Ryder Stone – who grew up in Calgary – is one of seven running backs who get a mention in a Canadian Football League story that looks at, "Who’s trending up and who’s trending down?"
Two running backs are "trending up," and Stone is one. From the story (LINK):
Stone was a bit of an unknown to the many U SPORTS fans who follow the draft in their winter football starvation. He arrived at the combine with good burst and the ability to handle himself in special teams drills, which was the most important part of his evaluation considering he out worked other backs such as Alex Taylor and Atlee Simon in the games most important discipline as a potential rookie.•
