One Of 1000



Harrison Keith, Dartmouth's 6-foot, 205-pound senior safety from Fairfield, Conn., is one of 41 FCS players nationwide to be named to the Shriners Children's East-West Bowl 1000 watchlist for the Feb. 4, 2027 game in AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Harrison Keith
Keith was a second-team, All-Ivy League selection last fall after he tied for the team lead with four interceptions and was fourth on the squad with 46 tackles. A third-team AP All-American, he was selected one of the Big Green's tri-captains in the spring and was awarded the program's Stubby Pearson Award for character, leadership, academic standing and performance on the football field.

Also named to the Shriners watchlist is Chris Corbo '26, the former Dartmouth tight end now a grad transfer at Georgia Tech.

• Ryder Kurtz (Cornell, TE)
• Samuel Musungu (Cornell, WR)

• Abu Kamara (Yale, S)
One other selection to the 1,000 who Dartmouth will face this fall is running back Luke Yoder of Lehigh.

Following up on last week's complaint about American sportscasters and sportswriters copying the English with sentences like "England are (unmistakably) through," this is from yesterday's newsletter from The Athletic:


Green Alert Take: No, I cannot see that text taking shape. What I could see is, "If Argentina gets to penalty kicks and wins . . . "
