All-Time American List: Charles Doe

The 1920 Olympic rugby team. Charles Doe is in the front row, far left.

Charles Doe played rugby at Stanford and went on to play for the USA in both the 1920 and 1924 Olympic Games.

The starting fullback and, in 1924, the main goalkicker for the team, Doe was a central figure in both gold medal-winning campaigns. Against Romania in the 1924 Olympic Games, Doe slotted five conversions and a penalty goal. That total was the most by any player playing for the USA until Ray Nelson broke it in 1984.
