 He died this morning.He was 67. Mark was an All American Quarterback and four year starter at Fort Hill. He went on to Maryland. As a junior, he led the Terps to an 11-1 record and made the cover of Sports Illustrated. He was a Heisman Trophy contender going into his senior season, but broke his hand in the third game and missed much of the rest of the season. He played briefly in the NFL with the Cardinals and Rams. In recent years, he did the color for FH radio broadcasts as recently as two weeks ago. |

Ron Manges was a staple in Walkersville (Frederick Co.) athletics for years. Football player (Falcon's) and coach (youth and HS) as well as the WHS basketball announcer. He played QB for Ft Hill and played at Maryland. Not brothers but assume they are related somehow. Rest in Peace.

Hood, Texas (US Army) when that SI came out. I paraded it around the barracks I was so proud. I still have that copy somewhere in my old stuff. |
