Football: Winograd, 1929-1931
Bill 'Willie' Winograd, a native of Denver, starred in football at both La Junta High School and the University of Denver in the late 1920s, earning the captaincy of the DU squad in 1931. Due to his small stature, he never played professionally, but ran a furniture business on the Front Range for nearly 50 years.
