Harvard Athletic Achievements

A stunning performer indoors and out, he captained the 1957 track team that won both the indoor and outdoor Heptagonal titles. He also anchored the relay team that set an outdoor record of 3:14.9. His cross country contributions were equally important as Harvard lost only one meet in three years and won the Heptagonal championship in 1956.
