In this interview we talk about mindset, training, trusting the process, and faith as Harrison gives us the process from being an undersized sophomore football player with huge goals and ambitions to accomplishing every single one of his goals and now at Dartmouth College where he is a safety, getting playing time on a dominant back to back ivy league championship winning team.
The 6-foot, 200-pound safety from Fairfield, Conn., and Choate recorded 10 tackles, with one for a loss, and one pass breakup in nine games this fall. Find his Dartmouth football bio HERE.
In the video Keith has this to say about his second sport:
"... (L)acrosse has been a huge part of my life going back to when I was really young. I knew it was something I wanted to consider in college, but obviously went to Dartmouth for football originally.
"So I wanted to settle in with the team freshman year, kind of make my mark, earn my spot on special teams or whatever it be. And I was able to do that. Had a great year this past year, this fall.
"And so decided lacrosse was something I did want to pick back up. I'm really excited and excited for what the future holds and seeing how we can handle two sports in college."

Headline in a story on The Roost, a BGA-like entity covering Rice University athletics: Rice Football 2024 Defensive Newcomer: Charlie Looes. From the story about the grad transfer. defensive lineman from Dartmouth (LINK):
Often times it’s hard for a team to know exactly what they’re getting when they sign a player out of the Transfer Portal. Getting the kind of season they got from Looes is a deal worth taking every time. If you’re only getting a guy for one year he needs to show up and show out, something Looes did with flare.
Looes would bookend his season on South Main with a sack in his first and last game, playing a meaningful role in a Senior Day win that assuredly meant so much to him and a host of Rice football veterans that played their final game in the season finale against South Florida. Like those seniors, Looes did all he could to send this team out on a high note and his efforts were rewarded.
