Sewanee
Stone was a prominent tackle for the Sewanee Tigers of Sewanee:The University of the South. At Sewanee he was a member of Phi Delta Theta. Stone was picked as a second-team tackle on Sewanee's All-time football team.[4]
1907
Stone was selected All-Southern in 1907. Vanderbilt coach Dan McGugin wrote "Lex Stone, of Sewanee, at left tackle was also an exceptional man. He is strong, fast, heavy and good running with the ball or stopping an opponent who has it. He, too, is a line man of a decade for a SIAA college."[5] He was given honorable mention by Walter Camp.[6]
