LeGrand Hopkins
(Football)
There are those persons whose performances and contributions to Danbury High School athletics have earned deserving and permanent recognition. While their talents are now hidden by the dust of passing years, these awards and the placement of their names on the hallowed halls of Danbury High School will allow them to take their honored place among those athletes of yesterday and today. While the Danbury High football team was first competing against the strongest teams in the state, a young quarterback made his mark against the best. That mark was good enough to earn LeGrand Hopkins selection as Danbury High’s first player to win all-state recognition. His athletic talent was matched by his academic prowess. He became president of Danbury Savings and Loan.
