The 1975 team’s daily schedule and accomplishments were not unique, but rather representative of the approximately six hundred players who for eighty-three years have worn the Yeshiva University blue and white uniform. . . ““Why They Played,” Chapter 11?The stories and observations that follow describe what happens when Yeshiva players attempt to find time for Torah study, secular knowledge, and athletic triumph.When Dr. Halpert scours the globe for good player-athletes who will lead the team to victory, he looks for athletic promise, but in searching for the best, he is cognizant that, in the final analysis, his team will be the YU team.
