1952 Marquette University The Hilltop Yearbook w/ Lisle Blackbourn

Offered is a 1952 edition of Marquette University's The Hilltop yearbook which features future Green Bay Packers head coach Lisle Blackbourn on page 203, with a game by game summary of the Hilltoppers season over the subsequent pages. While Blackbourn's Packers tenure from 1954-57 didn't yield much on field success, he did draft many Green Bay greats such as Forrest Gregg, Bart Starr, Paul Hornung, Jim Taylor, Jerry Kramer and Ray Nitschke who would go on to flourish under Vince Lombardi. Lisle would also return to Marquette to coach their final two football squads in 1959-60. (55E0012)
