Henry Woronicz '42 (Football):
Some say the 1940 team was considered the greatest football team in the history of BC football, and Henry Woronicz was a two-way player for the Eagles. The team defeated Tennessee in the Sugar Bowl, 19-13, and Woronicz played the full game and had a blocked punt which led to a BC touchdown. A native of Brockton, Massachusetts, Woronicz played defensive end for the 1937 undefeated freshman team but a bad knee injury halted his career as he withdrew from BC. Woronicz returned to the program and was an All-New England honoree. Woronicz is the 11th starter from the 1940 team to be inducted into the BC Varsity Club Hall of Fame.
