“Peggy” Flournoy, Tulane’s first All-American in football, led Coach Clark Shaughnessy’s team to a 9-0-1 record in 1925. Flournoy established Tulane records for touchdowns and points in a season and points in a game that stand today. He set two of his long-standing records with four rushing touchdowns and 31 points in a 37-9 victory over Louisiana Tech. Flournoy, one of the first inductees into the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame in 1968, also is a member of the Tulane and Greater New Orleans sports halls of fame. He died in 1972. |
