Robert Treat Paine Storer

Robert Treat Paine Storer, born on 17 April 1893 in Boston and died on 5 February 1962, was an American football player for Harvard University. A native of Boston who first played centre at Noble and Greenough School, he moved to tackle on the Harvard varsity, and in 1912 he scored Harvard's first touchdown against Yale since 1901 and was chosen as a first team All-American. He was captain of the 1913 Harvard team, the last Harvard side to go undefeated and untied until 2001, and he saved that perfect record against Princeton by blocking a punt and falling on the ball. In the First World War he served as a major of field artillery and was cited for bravery in September 1918. Later he served as president of the Boston YMCA and as a trustee of Northeastern University.
