Dartmouth’s Teevens hospitalized

HANOVER — Dartmouth coach Buddy Teevens, an avid cyclist, was injured Thursday in a bicycle accident in St. Augustine, Fla.

The 66-year-old Teevens, an Ivy League Player of the Year as quarterback at Dartmouth who became the football program’s all-time winningest coach, was riding his bicycle when it was involved in a collision. He remains in a hospital in the St. Augustine area, where his family has a home.

As Teevens recovers, the family is not accepting visitors at this time.

A Division I head football coach for more than 30 years, including 23 at Dartmouth, Teevens first coached the Big Green from 1987 through 1991, sharing the Ivy League title in 1990 and winning it outright the following year.

After coaching at Tulane and Stanford, he returned to Dartmouth in 2005 and led the team to a share of the Ivy League crown in 2015, 2019 and 2021.

While at Dartmouth, Teevens has been honored as the New England Coach of the Year three times (1990, 2015, 2019) and Ivy League Coach of the Year in 2019 and 2021.

All told, his record as Dartmouth head coach is 117-101-2, including 83-70-1 in Ivy League play.

Out of respect for the family, updates on Teevens’ condition will be made available in accordance with their wishes.
