Kermit Jorgensen
Quarterback / Halfback
Edmonds Warriors
When the Pacific Football League
called out it's 22-man All-Star team to complete the 1965
season, former University of Washington star QB turned
fullback Kermit Jorgensen was named Most Valuable Player
sharing honors with San Jose, California QB Chon Gallegos.
Jorgensen led the Warriors through
an undefeated 12-0 season as he pushed out a 3-TD
performance against the Tacoma Tyees to notch a 14th
consecutive league victory and sole possession of first
place. The Warriors would remain undefeated for a
second season in a row and the franchise would post
21-straight wins from 1964-1965 before playing the 1966
season as the Seattle Ramblers and the Seattle Rangers of
1967.
The "Renton Redhead" was a member of
the 1960 Washington Huskies National Championship team and
2-time Rose Bowl victor.
