1974 Rookie Profile: Rick Dvorak

Defensive End
3rd Round
Wichita State
"The three-time All-Missouri Conference choice was an outstanding defensive player for his team for the past three campaigns, also gaining All-American honorable mention from the Associated Press. Dvorak was the MVC Soph of the Year in 1971 and also won team defensive honors in '73.
Dvorak set a single game record with 27 unassisted tackles as a junior, and thus rated double-teaming throughout all of the 1973 season. He sacked the quarterback 10 times in his junior year and was in on a total of 105 tackles in his senior year.
He played strictly tackle at Wichita State, but has growth potential in the 250-pound range and will get a try at defensive end. He has 4.7 speed in the 40 and was a B student in engineering.
Rick was born in Spearville, Kansas, starred at Spearville High School and still resides in his hometown. He was the winner of a Vince Lombardi Scholarship for campus leadership and participation."
