Calvin Hill

Calvin Hill (born January 2 1947 in the Turners Station neighborhood of Dundalk, Maryland) 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.

He was named to the Pro Bowl team 4 times (1969, 1972, 1973 and 1974).

He was also, in 1972, the first Dallas Cowboy running back to have a 1,000 yard rushing season (with 1036 yards rushing); he repeated the feat in the following season with 1142 yards rushing.

Before his professional career, Hill attended Yale University, where he led, along with Brian Dowling, the 1968 Yale team that was undefeated [and untied] until the last game of the season, a 29-29 tie with Harvard. (Harvard trailed Yale 29-13 late in the game, but came back to score two touchdowns and two 2-point conversions, inspiring the Harvard Crimson to print the headline "Harvard Beats Yale, 29-29.")

At Yale, Hill was a member of Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity. Prior to matriculating at Yale, he attended Riverdale Country School in New York. His wife Janet Hill, is a graduate of Wellesley College, where she shared a suite with Hillary Rodham Clinton. They are the parents of current NBA player Grant Hill.
