From Hall of Honor press release dated June 1, 1985:

Bob Cherry, who is the only man in Wittenberg history to win four letters in each of three sports, is considered by many to be the greatest all-around athlete in Wittenberg history. In football, he set six Ohio Conference records and several Wittenberg records as a receiver. He was named to the All-Ohio and Little All-America football teams and received the Ohio Conference's Mike Gregory Award as the league's outstanding lineman. An AII-OAC performer as a basketball center for the Tigers, Cherry ranks 21st on the all-time Wittenberg scoring list with 888 points. Cherry was a UPI honorable mention All-America in 1963-64 and led the Tigers to the College Division runner-up that season. In track, Cherry won the NCAA high hurdles title in 1963 and scored over 100 points in dual meets that year. The captain of the team, Cherry also won the Sports Illustrated Faces in the Crowd award by winning six first places and scoring 33 points in one meet.
