Don Ferrari, you were truly an outstanding athlete at WPI. A
four-year letterman in baseball and a three-year letterman in
football, you co-captained both sports in your senior year. You
also earned three club letters in ice hockey.
As the baseball team's second baseman during your junior and
senior years, you accumilated two amazing errorless seasons. As
quarter-back-halfback and degensive safety for the football team,
you gave 110 percent every time you carried the ball, leaving your
mark on the gridiron as well. You gained an average of 4.6 yards
each time you carried the ball during your senior year, a testimony
to your skill. When you were a junior, the quarterback left the
team and you were asked to take over that vital position. You
handled your new responsibilities with skill and dedication,
becoming a real leader for the team.
Your outstanding achievements continued off the field. You were
inducted int oSkull, WPI's senior honor society, and were included
in Woh's Who in American Colleges and Universities. You were voted
president of your senior class and were a loyal member of the
Varsity Club, Tech Senate, Athletic Council and Council of
Presidents. You were also a member of the Phi Kappa Theta
fraternity, serving as fraternity president your senior
year.
Don Ferrari, it is with much pride and honor that induct you
into the WPI Athletic Hall of Fame.
