Ronald Edward "Ron" Springs (November 4, 1956 – May 12, 2011) was a professional American football running back, who played eight seasons in the NFL, for the Dallas Cowboys from 1979 to 1984, followed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 1985–1986. He is the father of NFL cornerback Shawn Springs. He also played with Lawrence Taylor and Mel Gray at Lafayette High School in Williamsburg, Virginia. ==Early years== Springs graduated from Lafayette High School where he played football alongside the former New York Giant and Hall of Fame linebacker Lawrence Taylor, and one of the best return specialists in NFL history in Mel Gray. As a senior at Lafayette in 1974, he rushed for a then-Peninsula District-record 1,876 yards, including 315 in one game. Springs attended Coffeyville Community College in 1975, where his 2,047 rushing yards remains a school record. The following year, he enrolled at Ohio State University, where he played three years under Woody Hayes and led the Buckeyes in both rushing (1,166 yards) and receiving (16 catches for 90 yards) in 1977. In 1978, he was elected a team co-captain. Springs was the last Buckeye with less than 100 yards receiving on a season to lead the team in receptions. He still ranks 18th on the all time rushing list at Ohio State University with 2,140 yards. In 2003 he was among the first inductees into Lafayette’s Athletic Hall of Fame. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ron Springs」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
