Matt Walsh ’88 is credited with being a vital member of W&J’s modern day football success after helping the Presidents to a 9-2 record in 1984 and a trip to the Division III Playoffs. The nine wins in his freshman season was the most victories by a Presidents squad since the 1921 Rose Bowl season. Walsh was a four-year starter, a three-time All-Conference selection and an Academic All-American.
In 1987, he was a team captain during Washington & Jefferson’s 10-1 season in which they lost to the eventual national champions in the second round of the playoffs. W&J won 35 games against just six losses in his four seasons and made three trips to the NCAA Playoffs. Walsh also spent time with the San Francisco 49ers upon graduation.
