Born April 30, 1918, in East Boston, Massachusetts , was Georgetown University’s tough guard, Augie Lio. According to his bio on the NFF’s website was known as a bruising blocker and acclaimed for his uncanny accuracy as a place kicker. In both of these capacities Agostine "Augie" Lio was a valuable asset to the Georgetown Hoyas. Beginning in the fall of 1938, Lio's first year on the team, Georgetown started out on a 23-game winning streak. Boston College unfortunately ended the Hoyas’ string of victories in the narrowest of margins.. The game had started great as Lio scored the first 10 points virtually by himself. He led the team to the first touchdown by executing key blocks, kicking the extra point and added a field goal soon afterward. Despite his efforts, the team went down to defeat, 19-18. Lio's potent performance spurred writer Grantland Rice to write; "It was the greatest all-around exhibition of power, skill, deception and spirit that I ever saw. Lio booted the early field goal with the ease of a pro." Lio received All- America honors before going on to play professional football. Augie Lio’s collegiate football records are celebrated in the College Football Hall of Fame after his induction in 1979.
