He led the Giants in rushing in his second season and after an injury was claimed on waivers and joined the Green Bay Packers midway thru the season. As a professional, Mercein is best remembered for his performance in the Packers' game-winning drive in the 1967 NFL Championship Game, known popularly as the "Ice Bowl".[2] Mercein rushed six times for 20 yards, and had two receptions for 22 yards in the "Ice Bowl"; 34 of his total yards were achieved on that game's final and famous 68 yard drive.[2] He played for the Packers through 1969 and then with the Jets before retiring in 1971.[2] Early yearsMercein is the son of Tom Mercein, a radio and television personality who worked in Milwaukee, Chicago and New York City during the 1950s and 1960s.[3] The younger Mercein graduated from New Trier High School in 1961. He was an all-state fullback who also was the first Illinois high-school athlete to ever exceed 60 feet in the shot put.[4] His feats of 61 feet, 1¾ inches at Waukegan on April 29, 1961 and 60 feet, 5½ inches at Maine East six days later on May 5 both exceeded the then-state record of 58 feet, 5½ inches. Neither were recognized as an Illinois high school record, which had to be established only at the state championships.[5] Mercein's acceptance of a scholarship to attend Yale College was based on recommendations from Mike Pyle, a fellow New Trier graduate who had also matriculated at Yale.[6] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.nfl.com/player/chuckmercein/2521032/profile|title=Chuck Mercein, RB at NFL.com|accessdate=11 November 2014}} {{Super Bowl II}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Mercein, Chuckie}}2. ^1 2 3 {{cite news|url=http://www.jsonline.com/sports/packers/29405859.html|title=Ice Bowl hero's star hasn't cooled much|last=Hendricks|first=Martin|date=3 January 2008|work=Milwaukee Journal Sentinel|accessdate=11 November 2014}} 3. ^Struzzi, Diane.
