Hampden-Sydney College

A four-year letterman in football and baseball, Mike Brinser was an outstanding football quarterback and in baseball was the team anchor at first base for four years.  He led the Tigers three times in hitting, including a career-best .366 average in 1925, and served as baseball team captain his senior season.  As a senior, he was quarterback when Hampden-Sydney beat Richmond and tied Virginia, Florida and Marshall en route to a 5-2-3 record.

After graduating, Brinser spent 35 years as a coach and teacher at St. Christopher's School in Richmond.  He retired in 1971 and still resides in Richmond.
