Unless you come from Maryland or are a historian of Atlantic Coast Conference sports, the name Darryl Hill probably means little to you.

It should.

Hill, in 1962, became the first black man to play college football in the ACC.

That might not sound like much today especially when you see black athletes playing and dominating in virtually all college sports.

The story of what Hill had to endure, from listening to organized racist chants from opposing fans to leaving the field because he feared for his mother's safety in a hostile stadium, is told in a fantastic documentary titled 'Black Man, White Field,' airing on Comcast sports channel. ...

Told with present-day interviews and archival footage, 'Black Man, White Field' tells the story of Hill simply and elegantly. An unassuming man who now works at the University of Maryland, Hill is the Jackie Robinson of his day -- minus the national adulation. Check for 'Black Man, White Field' on a station near you.
