Robert Balkema brings Harvard versatility and big-play instincts
Robert Balkema is a Harvard defensive back with a track record of football IQ and opportunistic playmaking, including an interception in Harvard’s 2005 win at Lafayette and a reputation as a former high-school quarterback who could improvise when plays broke down[4][3]. He’s the kind of player who helps teams by being assignment-sound, mentally sharp, and versatile in the secondary, while his Academic All-Ivy recognition also points to the discipline and consistency coaches love[8].
