Dave Livengood
Selected to Team USA for World Championship of American Football
Former
IUP offensive lineman Dave Livengood has been selected as one of 45
players who will make up the roster for Team USA at the 2007 World
Championship of American Football in July.
The
six-country tournament will be held July 7-15 in Kawasaki, Japan, and
this is the first time that the United States will participate in the
event. Team USA will face Germany and Korea in pool play, and the other
group includes teams from Japan, Sweden and France. Japan has won the
past two championships.
The
United States team was selected by USA Football Executive Director Scott
Hallenbeck and Head Coach John Makovic from a pool of 2006 seniors
representing all levels of college football. Schools were asked by USA
Football to nominate two seniors, and that list was pared down by the Team
USA coaching staff through film evaluation.
A total of 25
players came from the Division I and I-AA ranks. Livengood is one of 10
Division II players selected, with nine coming from Division III and one
from the NAIA.
“It is
exciting to have been selected to represent IUP and its great football
tradition,” said Livengood. “It also shows the high level of football that
is played on the Division II level.”
