Peter Borsari | ORR Athletic Hall of Fame

Hall of Fame Plaque Biography

Peter Borsari was one of those most dominant football players in the area in the early 1980s. A 4-year starter at offensive tackle and defensive end, Peter was a physical force on the gridiron. He was named a Standard-Times All Star twice, an All Eastern Mass All Star, a Boston Globe All Star, and was selected to play in the prestigious Shriners All Star game in 1981. Peter also ran track at ORR. Peter went on to play football at UMass Amherst on a scholarship.

THE COMPLETE STORY

Expanded Historical Profile

Peter Borsari, ORR Class of 1982, was a four-year starter at offensive tackle and defensive end. His physical plaque records two Standard-Times All-Star selections, All Eastern Massachusetts and Boston Globe All-Star honors, and selection to the 1981 Shriners All-Star Game. He also competed in track.

Borsari continued his football career at UMass Amherst on a scholarship. The earlier Hall website biography records his senior-year captaincy and the University of Massachusetts Chancellor’s Award for Athletics and Academic Excellence; those details are not on the physical plaque.

That earlier biography also describes his leadership of Borsari Marketing Solutions in Rochester and his coaching of local youth football and baseball. These are induction-era descriptions, not claims about his current roles.
