John F. Chironna

Induction:
1984
Class:
1955

John Chironna was co-captain of the Bucknell football team and captain of the baseball team in his senior year, and he was named to All-Pennsylvania and All-East football teams for three straight years. He earned MVP honors in baseball when he batted .369 as a senior. A four-year football letterman at guard and a starter in 34 consecutive games, Chironna played on teams that had a combined 22-14 record, including the unbeaten (9-0) 1951 team. Recognized as an "unsung hero" by the Eastern Intercollegiate Football Association, Chironna was named the Outstanding Senior Athlete in 1955 and went on to a football coaching career that lasted more than 30 years. Among his coaching stops, he served as head football coach (1961-62) and head baseball coach (1960-61) at the University of Rhode Island. He was also a longtime coach, athletic director and vice principal at Morristown (N.J.) High School.
