On this day in 1965, Mount Hermon and Deerfield kept playing! It's hard to find a photo more iconic than this AP Sports Photo of the Year. How many of you were on campus, or had relatives on campus, the day of the #SillimanFire?? Fun fact: The brand new Gilder Center now stands exactly where Silliman Hall once stood!

Check out NFL Films’ “Playing With Fire”, featuring, among others, #NMHlifers Peter Weis '78 P ‘13, ‘21 (NMH Archivist), James B. Ward '68 P '07, '10 (former longtime faculty/coach), and football co-captain Jim Van Fleet '66, and check out the NYT aricle (via the links below)! Stay tuned for more recollections of this day! #NMHhistory #NMHalumni #HoggerPride
