走进耶鲁大学 第28期:常春藤联盟(2)

 Since 1971，the Bushnell Cup has been awarded to the Ivy¹ football player of the year， who is selected by vote of the eight coaches. This trophy，presented to the Ivy League by the Eastern Association of Intercollegiate Football Officials，was named in honor of Asa S. Bushnell, the first commissioner² of the Eastern College Athletic³ Conference, in appreciation⁴ of "his great contribution to the advancement⁵ of college athletics⁶".

自1971年开始，每年都会由八个教练投票选出"年度常春藤足球运动员"，并授予其布什内尔奖杯。这个奖项由校际足球协会的东部分会设立，是为了纪念东部院校体育赛事联盟的第一任专员亚撒S·布什内尔而命名的，以感谢"他为高校体育赛事的发展所作出的伟大奉献"。

The eight universities are recognized as leading universities with long histories, rigorous scholarship, professors of high level, and students of high quality. The Ivy League is often taken as the synonym⁷ of top elite⁸ schools.

这八所大学都是公认的一流大学，它们历史悠久、治学严谨、教授水平高、学生质量好，因此"常春藤联盟"又时常作为顶尖名校的代名词。
