Fullback Frank Grigonis was the team captain.[1] He played for the Detroit Lions of the National Football League in 1942. Chattanooga players took five of the eleven first-team places on the 1941 All-Dixie Conference football team selected by the Chattanooga News-Press: backs Grigonis and Sib Evans; tackle Tom Barber; guard Slug Burney; and center J.D. Langley.[2]
Chattanooga was ranked at No. 84 (out of 681 teams) in the final rankings under the Litkenhous Difference by Score System for 1941.[3]
