Feinberg, Jason

Jason Bennet Feinberg

In 2000, Feinberg became Penn's all-time leading scorer and the Ivy League's all-time scoring leader as a kicker (218 career points). After breaking the record, Feinberg said: "Without a doubt, the team goal (of winning the Ivy League) came first. But coming into the season, I really wanted to be Penn's all-time leading scorer...It's been an amazing year. They've been playing football at Penn for over 100 years. To be able to say that you're the all-time leading scorer, that's really something."
