Marcus Mariota of the University of Oregon is awarded the 2014 Heisman Trophy during a ceremony
in New York. The Heisman will go on display for the public during a free admission weekend at the
Oregon Historical Society, downtown, June 5-6.
Heisman Trophy in Portland
Historical Society to
display esteemed award
The 2014 Heisman Trophy, presented to the
University of Oregon in recognition of the ac-
complishments of quarterback Marcus Mariota,
will be on display at the Oregon Historical So-
ciety, 1200 S.W. Park Ave., from Friday, June
5 through Sunday, June 7. Through a sponsor-
ship donation from Nike, admission to the Ore-
gon Historical Society will be free for the entire
weekend.
First awarded in 1935 by the Downtown Ath-
letic Club of New York City and named after John
Heisman a legendary college football coach, ,
the Heisman is presented annually to the NCAA
football player whose performance exemplifies the
pursuit of excellence with integrity.
The practice of awarding two trophies each year
began in 1968, with one trophy going to the chosen
player and another to the school represented by the
winner.
“We are delighted that the University of Oregon
asked the Oregon Historical Society to be the ven-
ue to display the Heisman Trophy in Portland,” said
Kerry Tymchuk, the Oregon Historical Society’s
executive director. “Thanks to the support of Nike,
countless football fans can view the trophy and cele-
brate this exciting moment in Oregon sports history.”
Following the exhibit, the Heisman Trophy will
return to Eugene, where it will eventually be put
on permanent display at the University of Oregon
Hatfield-Dowlin Complex.
