Historique

Dan Farthing (b. 1969) played with the Huskie football team from 1987 to 1990. In his rookie season, Farthing made his mark in football as a receiver with three touchdowns on 31 receptions for 759 yards. He was named the Canada West and CIS Rookie of the Year – just one of five Huskies to ever win a national football award. The next season Farthing again took the league by storm finishing with three touchdowns on 33 receptions for 756 yards, leading the conference and country in receiving. As well as winning the Canada West MVP award, Farthing was named both an all-star and a CIAU All-Canadian. Dan added another all-star nod in 1990 after helping the Huskies to their first-ever Vanier Cup championship. He was also awarded the Huskie Athletics Rusty MacDonald Cup, given to the athlete who best combines sportsmanship, leadership and athletics. He graduated from the College of Physical Education and was the first student in the college to win the President’s Medal for most distinguished graduate. He was drafted in the CFL in 1991 by the Saskatchewan Roughriders in the first round, second overall - the second highest of any Huskie. Farthing had an 11-year career as a receiver with the Saskatchewan Roughriders, starting in 1991. He won a Grey Cup in 1989. Farthing retired in 2001 and was inducted into the Roughriders Plaza of Honour in 2009.
