1954-1955 University of Utah Football (Games & Scores)



These Were the Stars

These are the men who gained recognition while their football feats resounded all over the Intermountain area, for they gained 1954 conference or national prestige.

A roll call includes: Dave Dungan, seventh leading passer in the nation; Don Henderson, blocker—extraordinary; Lou Mele, all-conference halfback; Max Pierce, speed, speed and more speed; Herb Nakken, crunching blocker, devastating runner; Orville Nellestein, at end, one of Utah’s greats; Tommy Thompson, guarding the forward outposts.
