Calvin Hill

Calvin G. Hill (born January 2, 1947) is a retired American football running back who had a 12-year NFL career from 1969 to 1981. He played for the Dallas Cowboys, Washington Redskins and Cleveland Browns. In 1975 he played for The Hawaiians of the World Football League. He was named to the Pro Bowl team four times (1969, 1972, 1973 and 1974). In 1972 he became the first Cowboy running back to have a 1,000-yard rushing season (with 1,036 yards rushing); he repeated the feat in the following season with 1,142 yards rushing.

Early years

Prior to attending ninth grade, Hill was awarded a scholarship to attend the Riverdale Country School in The Bronx, New York. At Riverdale he was an accomplished athlete in football, basketball, baseball, and track and field, often leading teams that defeated athletic arch-rival Horace Mann School and other Ivy Preparatory School League opponents in the metropolitan New York City-area.

He was introduced to organized football at Riverdale, where he was named the starting quarterback as a sophomore, running the T formation in a program that was undefeated for eight seasons, 1958 through 1965 and was led by head coach Frank Bertino. He quarterbacked the team during the 1963, 1964 and 1965 seasons.
