Alumni News - Weber, Senser to ChesCo Sports Hall of Fame

Former Golden Ram football players Chuck Weber and Joe Senser have been named to the 2015 Inductee Class of the Chester County Sports Hall of Fame. The 2015 Annual Induction Banquet will be held on Saturday, November 14th at the Downingtown Country Club.

As a nose guard in 1952, Weber became the first West Chester player named All-American by the American Football Coaches Association. He went on to play primarily linebacker for seven seasons (1955 - 1961) in the NFL, including the 1955 NFL Champion Cleveland Browns and the 1960 NFL Champion Philadelphia Eagles. He later coached in the NFL and AFL for the Boston Patriots, San Diego Chargers, Cincinnati Bengals, St. Louis Cardinals and Baltimore Colts.

As the game of football and the Golden Ram offense has opened up over the years, Senser's place on the career reception list has slowly slipped. He was West Chester's top receiver for each of the four years that he played for the Golden Rams from 1975 to 1978, finishing his career with 155 receptions for 2,186 yards and 14 touchdowns. Senser was drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in 1979 and went on to play in 49 games over four seasons, recording 165 receptions for 1,822 yards and 16 touchdowns. He also played in the 1981 Pro Bowl.

Both are already members of the Killinger Hall of Fame.
