It was a weekend built for classic games as the Fords took down a Dickinson squad receiving votes in the USILA poll just one day after snow postponed the original start date.
The Haverford College athletic department handed out its end of the year awards and recognized all the amazing contributions from the student-athletes in the Class of 2020.
The Fords picked up their highest ranked win in nine years against the Red Devils, also duplicating that feat just a couple weeks later against a top 10 Ursinus squad.
The Fords and Garnet battled for the final playoff spot three straight years before the Fords won the 2018 battle on Ben Frost's game-winning goal with just 1:37 remaining in regulation time.
The Fords will once again play a challenging schedule with six games against teams in the preseason top 20 but are excited to showcase the talent that led them to a pair of top 10 victories a season ago.
Organized by Eighth Dimension, Haverford's Office of Community Service, and promoted by the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC), this festival is another example of the Haverford athletic department supporting the NCAA Division III Special Olympics initiative.
Haverford was one of just 53 Division III institutions that were recognized by DIII and its national SAAC representatives for completing the 50 for 50th Challenge.
The Haverford College Athletic Department will induct its ninth class into the Thomas Glasser ’82 Hall of Achievement in the spring of 2020. The deadline for submission of nominees for the 2020 Hall of Achievement is August 1, 2019.
