Familiar Name

Damon Jones '95 was a Dartmouth tight end recruited by Buddy Teevens in his first go-around in Hanover. Now he's the head coach at St. John Neumann Catholic High School in his hometown of Naples, Fla., where his son Jensen has been selected as the first player from a private school to win the Broxson Trophy, given by the Naples Daily News to the area’s best overall football player.
