Home of the Rochester Institute of Technology Tigers

Dave Mick, a native of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, emerged as a tremendous football player for the Tigers, who played on both sides of the ball.

Defensively, Mick was a feared defensive end, who set the school single-season record with six fumbles recovered in 1972. He was named the RIT Defensive Player of the Year that season. As a senior, Mick recorded 74 tackles. He averaged eight tackles per game during his career during his three-year varsity stint (1972-74).

Mick, a printing major, played for both Tom Coughlin, Super Bowl winning coach of the New York Giants and Lou Spiotti, current Director for the Center of Intercollegiate Athletics and Recreation at RIT.
