In 1963, John Slaughter wore #63; his senior year his team won the Tennessee State Championship out of no where (only 3 starters returned from the previous year!). Slaughter was 190lbs. and a stretch at 5'10" (check photo in lobby, 2nd on lower left). Against TN High late in the season when almost the entire line was injured, (they all went BOTH ways AND special teams) Slaughter made 22 UNASSISTED tackles. Needless to say, that game film and great SAT scores/good grades got him a full ride at Davidson. Just to "beat a dead horse," Slaughter could bench 350lbs. and run 100yds. in 11- secs. To illustrate, his freshman year at Davidson he play CORNERBACK! His sophomore year...DEFENSIVE TACKLE! Points (3): #63 you are part of a grand tradition, your responsibility is to IT. 2. Play every down as if it were your last. 3. As always, Beat 'Em, then Beat 'Em Badly! Roll!
