Saluting the best of the century

How we chose the team? Bernie Lemonick, Wharton '51, earned All-America honors at guard for the Quakers in 1950. A native of Philadelphia, Lemonick grew up watching Penn play at Franklin Field and listening to games on radio. He served as assistant coach of the Penn football team from 1955 to 1959 and is currently the head of the Mungermen. C. Robert Paul, Wharton '39, was managing editor of the DP in 1938. A Philadelphia native, Paul saw his first game at Franklin Field in 1924, worked as Penn Sports Information Director from 1953 to 1961 and believes he has "seen Penn lose more football games than any other alumnus." He was also a member of the selection committee for the Penn Athletic Hall of Fame. Jerry Robinson, Wharton '54, lettered for the Penn football team in 1952 and 1953, George Munger's last two seasons as coach of the Quakers. Robinson has followed the football team closely for half a century. Dan Rottenberg, College '64, played two seasons on the Penn football team as a kicker, before becoming sports editor of the DP in 1963-64. An eminent Philadelphia writer, Rottenberg has authored seven books, including Fight On, Pennsylvania, a history of Penn football.
