Mr. George Borum was born on December 20, 1964 in Seaford, VA. He attended Seaford Elementary School, where he was an A student and superlative young athlete. He then matriculated at Yorktown Intermediate School. He was a member of their undefeated, un-scored upon football team. He was the most outstanding defensive player, and the defensive MVP. York High School was his next stop. He was a member of the football and basketball teams. He was an All District, All Region football player as a senior. He was an ultra aggressive outside linebacker who set a standard of sacking the quarterback that was unparalleled. He was offered a football scholarship to The University of Richmond and began attending the school in July 1983. He didn't play much during his freshman campaign, but was able to display his talents in his sophomore season. As a Junior, his talents began to shine, as he stockpiled highlights as a defensive stalwart. One particular highlight was against Western Illinois. He sacked then quarterback Rich Fahnestock, who subsequently fumbled the ball, which led to a Spider victory. This particular play placed Mr. Borum on the front page of the sports section in September 1985. He opted out of his senior season to pursue a career in the United States Army. He spent several years as a Multi Channel Communications Equipment Operator. This led to stints in France and Germany as a member of the armed forces. He returned to college and earned a Bachelors of Arts Degree in English from Norfolk State University. At this point, he began his teaching career, which he still enjoys today.
