8 Takeaways From Harvard’s Task Force Reports
Captain-elect Don Chiofaro was one of two players selected unanimously to the official All-Ivy League football team announced Sunday. In all, Harvard placed six players, second only to co-champion Dartmouth's seven, on the 24-man squad chosen by the eight League coaches.
Halfback Bobby Leo and tackle Steve Diamond were the only Crimsons on the offensive unit. Tackle Dave Davis, middle guard Stan Greenidge, and safety John Tyson joined linebacker Chiofaro on the defensive platoon.
Tyson was the only sophomore named to the squad. The offense was composed of all seniors, but Greenidge and Chiofaro were among four juniors on defense.
Oddly enough, another junior named was Greenidge's counterpart for Yale, Tom Schmidt. To make room for two middle guards, the coaches chose only three defensive backs, slighting some of the League's excellent "rovers."
Yale captain Bob Greenlee was the only other unanimous choice in a surprising show of confusion, and there were only four players who missed unanimity by one. Columbia and Penn were not represented on the squad, and Brown placed only its punter, Joe Randall.
