No. 37 Bobby Calderwood
Background: Bobby Calderwood returned last fall after spending the previous two years on a Mormon mission in Arizona. After working to regain his strength and conditioning, he's as big and strong as he's been since arriving on campus. He brings toughness, experience, maturity and the ability to run the ball to the offensive backfield. Last season, he appeared in all 10 games. In high school, he made the Liberty Conference All-League first team as a linebacker. He also competed in track, throwing the discus and shot and running on the 4x100 relay.
Best class you've taken at Dartmouth: Engineering 21, during which Mike Fritz, Ben Goeke, myself and a few other friends built a guitar-training device.
Favorite athlete growing up: I grew up in Chicago, and therefore liked Walter Payton and Michael Jordan. I also have always looked up to my dad, who played his college football at Northwestern.
Favorite professional team: Washington Redskins.
What disc is in your CD player right now: The Strokes — First Impressions of Earth and The Format — Interventions and Lullabies.
Favorite food: Anything and everything.
Favorite vacation spot: Hapuna Beach, Island of Hawaii, Hawaii.
Favorite movie: Batman Begins.
If you could have dinner with any three people, past or present, who would they be: Jesus Christ, Joseph Smith Jr., Sir Paul McCartney.
Your prized possession: My set of scriptures and my journal from my two-year missionary service.
Best football memory: Dartmouth's most recent game.
What's your favorite thing to do when you're not playing football: Playing music with my band, Yield to Maturity.
Most memorable experience from your LSA/FSP or leave-term job: Touring Europe for two weeks followed by attending a course at the London School of Economics with Mike Fritz and some other Dartmouth friends.
