IRVING, Texas — Nineteen member of the Dartmouth football team have been named to the 2025 NFF Hampshire Honor Society, as announced by the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame. The Big Green are tied for the second most honorees in the nation, only trailing Harvard (22) and tied with Marist (19).
Twenty-three colleges and universities have had at least one player selected in all 19 years of the NFF Hampshire Honor Society (2007–25).
Nominated by their respective schools, members of the NFF Hampshire Honor Society must meet one of the following criteria:
Be a senior player graduating this spring/summer who completed his final year of playing eligibility in 2024; or
Be a graduated player or grad transfer who has already earned a bachelor's degree and competed in the 2024 season (even if the player has remaining eligibility and may return to play next season).
The NFF Hampshire Honor Society capitalizes on the NFF's National Scholar-Athlete program by greatly expanding the number of scholar-athletes the NFF can recognize each year. The program further strengthens the organization's leadership role in encouraging academic performance by the student-athletes at the 774 colleges and universities with football programs nationwide.
