Bio

You starred and lettered in football at Olivet College for four years and were a member of the All-MIAA Football Team in 1962, ’63, and ’64. In addition to All-MIAA recognition you were nominated and selected for two successive years to the NAIA All-State Team. Later you became the first Olivet College football player to sign a professional football contract when you agreed to play with the Boston Patriots.

You were a member of the Adelphic Alpha Pi and represented them in student government. You served as manager for the baseball team and played on several intramural athletic teams.

Your superior ability on the playing field prepared you for a successful career in the business world. Olivet honors you as a winner and is proud to induct you into the Olivet College Hall of Fame on this 14th day of October, 1989.
