While Mark only spent a nano-second as a Friar because he was drafted by the MLB (Atlanta Braves) at the start of his senior year and so left Penn, he is still one of us. Not only is he a 1997 Friar but he also won the Peter K. Riley Award as a rare two-sport athlete. He led the football team to an Ivy League championship and is considered one of the top quarterbacks in school history and he played shortstop on the baseball team. Congrats on this newest achievement Mark DeRosa! ![]()
