Greg Larson
Class of 2010
Football: 1958-60

Greg Larson played three seasons for the University of Minnesota football team, earning three varsity letters. Larson was a team captain and All-Big Ten selection in the 1960 season.

He helped lead the Gophers to a National Championship, a co-Big Ten title and a berth in the Rose Bowl during his senior season of 1960.

Larson moved on to the New York Giants of the National Football League as a sixth-round selection in the NFL Draft. He played for the Giants from 1961-73 and still ranks No. 7 all-time in games played for the franchise (179). Larson's 13 seasons with the Giants also tie him for No. 7 on the team's all-time chart.

Following his football career, Larson went on to found Greg Larson Sports, a successful sports apparel company.
