Michael Meredith Reily ’64 Award

This award was created in 2011 and represents the only award voted by the team to recognize the football player who best embodies the spirit, ideals, and character of the team, as defined by his teammates.  It is named in honor of Mike Reily ’64 who, over his Williams football career, exemplified the highest levels of performance and leadership on the playing field with extraordinary levels of determination, courage, and grace in the face of personal adversity.  This honor is awarded at the end of each season. 

Mike Reily was selected as an All-American linebacker for his performance during the 1961 season. In 1962, he contacted Hodgkin’s Disease. Although his health deteriorated over the next 18 months, Mike was determined to graduate with his class, remaining a presence on campus as he attended classes, presided over his fraternity and co-captained the 1963 team. After graduating with his class and receiving his Williams diploma in June 1964, Mike passed away. He was respected and loved by his teammates and all who knew him. Mike Reily represented the highest ideals of Williams College and the Williams Football program.
