Chiofaro Signed As Free Agent With Canadians

Don Chiofaro signed last week as a free agent with the Hamilton Tiger Cats in the Canadian Football League. The Tiger Cats are winners of the Grey Cup, signifying dominance in the Canadian League.

Last year's football captain, Chiofaro was an All-Ivy selection in both his junior and senior years. He has led the Harvard defense for three straight years in his center linebacker spot.

Most American pro scouts felt that the 5-10, 230 lb. senior was too small for American football, especially at the middle linebacker position which has turned into a "big man's spot" in the last few years.

But if Chiofaro can prove himself in Canadian play, there is a good chance that an American team will try to sign him later.
