Palin named captain and team honors



Yale defensive end Beau Palin has been named next season’s captain, which was announced Monday night at the Bulldogs annual team banquet at The Commons at Woolsey Hall.  
“It’s a tremendous honor to be appointed a leader by men I respect so much. The guys who’ve come before me, I’ve learned a lot. Our senior did an outstanding job of establishing the process and moving forward, I can’t wait to take the next step with this group of men, as one team, with one goal in mind. I’m very excited.”
Palin, a 6-foot-3, 247-pound junior from Milwaukee, Wisc., finished with 43 tackles and four sacks in his first season at defensive end. Palin was previously a tight end.
The Bulldogs ended its season with a 34-24 loss to rival Harvard and finished the year 2-8 (1-6 Ivy League).
Elected by his teammates, Palin is the 136th captain in program history and the first from Wisconsin. He also earned the team’s Hammer of the Year Award for the team’s top hits.
