Football dominates All-Ivies

 

From the department of not surprising news, Penn football had 18 All-Ivy selections, including senior linebacker Jake Lewko, who shared the Asa S. Bushnell Cup with Brown receiver/returner Buddy Farnham as the Ivy League's top player.

Six of the 18 received first team honors, including both of Penn's starting cornerbacks, seniors Jonathan Moore and Chris Wynn. This was Wynn's third straight All-Ivy year; the last Penn player to do so was receiver Miles Macik (1993-95). The other four first teamers were Lewko, junior offensive lineman Joseph D'Orazio, senior defensive lineman Joe Goniprow and junior kicker Andrew Samson.

In addition, coach Al Bagnoli was named a candidate for the Eddie Robinson award, which goes to the top coach in the Football Championship Subdivision. Other candidates of note include Villanova's Andy Talley and Dale Lennon of No. 1 Southern Illinois. This is Bagnoli's third appearance on the Robinson Award list; he finished ninth in 2002 and eighth in 2003.
