Ben Schwartzwalder Trophy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Ben Schwartzwalder Trophy is a college football trophy that annually goes to the winner of the West Virginia University and Syracuse University football game. The trophy was introduced in 1993 and is named after former WVU football player and Syracuse head coach Ben Schwartzwalder. The trophy itself was sculpted by Syracuse player Jim Ridlon.

West Virginia won the first trophy game 43-0 at Syracuse and has gone on to win seven, including the last four. Syracuse has won six since the trophy started.
