The Downtown Athletic Club of New York City created the award and presented it first in 1935. The award, in 1935, was known as the 'DAC Trophy'. It was renamed 'Heisman Trophy' for John Heisman, the DAC's first athletic director, when Heisman passed away in 1936.
Only two freshmen and three sophomores have won the Heisman Trophy Award â and all within the last seven seasons. The two freshmen are, in fact, the last two winners: quarterbacks Johnny Manziel and the youngest Heisman Trophy recipient ever, Jameis Winston.
