Peter Boulware went to high school at Spring Valley in Columbia, South Carolina where he participated in football and track. He was named a Blue Chip All-American in football, High School Player of
the Year and participated in the Shrine Bowl. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution also named Peter one of the Top 50 athletes. The 6-5, 255lb. defensive end came in as a redshirt in 1993 and got a taste of success on the national championship team. His freshman season, he had 37 tackles and five sacks. As a sophomore he led the ACC with 10 sacks despite starting only two of 11 games. His standout junior year included 19 quarterback sacks, and 68 tackles which led him to make the decision to declare eligibility in the NFL draft. After being named a consensus All-American, National Defensive Player of the Year, All-ACC and smashing Ron Simmons 1977 record of 12 sacks in a season with an astonishing 19 sacks, Peter's career as a Seminole would come to a happy end. He was selected with the 4th overall pick in the first round of the '97 draft by the Baltimore Ravens. His premiere season as a Baltimore Raven was just as impressive, earning Defensive Rookie of the Year honors and being named to the All-Rookie Team. In nine seasons, Boulware has made three Pro Bowl appearances and garnishes a Super Bowl ring from the 2001 Championship Game when the Ravens beat the Giants to take the world title. |
