Rich Pocock ’72 lettered all four years of his career as a running back for Washington & Jefferson. As a freshman, he was named First Team All-PAC. The Presidents ranked fourth among small colleges in total offense with Pocock in the backfield. In 1970, he led W&J to the conference championship and helped the Presidents finish second in the PAC as a senior in 1971.

Pocock and quarterback Don Kasperik formed one of the top offensive threats in school history. Pocock ended his senior season ranked fourth in the nation in receiving yards. Following graduation, Pocock spent time with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
