Some 250-pound 17-year-old who has just recently received his acceptance letter could become the cornerstone of a dominant Ivy championship squad in 2009. Why, just three years ago, junior Clifton Dawson was a redshirt freshman at Northwestern University; now, he is the most prolific running back ever to have worn Crimson.In the not-too-distant past, the stars of the swimming, lacrosse, basketball, fencing, hockey teams were relative unknowns to their Harvard classmates.Now, the likes of David Cromwell, Evan Calvert...
