'66ers, we have a special treat for you. John Mack '00, who heads all athletics at Princeton and was an outstanding athlete himself, will speak to us about the complicated and confusing state of college athletics and how Princeton fits into that. He will be questioned by two names who need no introduction, former Princeton football stars Ron Landeck '66 and Bert Kerstetter '66. Moderating this conversation will be Henry Von Kohorn '66, who in addition to his many Princeton accomplishments is reputed to be the only Princetonian who sees more Princeton sporting events each year than John Mack himself. Perhaps they can settle this question in real time.

 
 

John Mack is the Ford Family Director of Athletics at Princeton. He was a spectacular sprinter at Princeton and won the Roper Trophy in 2000 as the best male student-athlete. No one is more qualified to speak about how Princeton fits into this totally new world of college athletics. Read more about John here. It includes photos and two videos.

 

Ron Landeck (also a Roper Trophy winner and captain of the baseball team) and Bert Kerstetter are known to all in '66. They were the offensive stalwarts of a football team that went 17-1 in our last two years. We are including just one photo, Ron's favorite football one, the 482 run-pass option led by Bert with Ron following. If this doesn't cause chills to run down your spine you likely have lost feeling in your toes.

 
 

Henry Von Kohorn is, of course, Henry. Former Chair of the Alumni Association, founder of the Princeton Prize in Race Relations and countless other Princeton roles. Indescribably crazed sports fan. The perfect person to moderate what we know will be an exciting conversation. Here with Bert.

 
 

Please plan to join us for what will be a one-of-a-kind Tiger Talk. It will start right on time at 4:00 p.m. Eastern on Wednesday, January 21.We will open the Zoom room at 3:45for those who want to join in some '66 banter. You can join the conversation here.
