Bruce Allen Inducted Into University Of Richmond Athletics Hall Of Fame

Bruce Allen certainly left his mark on the record books as a talented punter for the University of Richmond Spiders in the mid-1970s.

But it was the tremendous experiences – from his Richmond teammates, coaches, professors and everybody and everything in-between – that will always leave a mark on Allen, who has since built an impressive résumé as a team executive in the National Football League.

On Saturday, Allen, the Washington Redskins’ team president, was one of four former student-athletes inducted into the University of Richmond’s Athletics Hall of Fame.

“You know what, it’s nice, but I’m grateful for everything that I got from the University of Richmond, from the coaches to the professors and the friends that I made” Allen told Redskins.
