Everett M. Yon was a college athletics administrator. Yon was athletic director at his alma mater, the University of Florida, from 1925 to 1928,[1] and later president of its booster club.[2] Yon played for the Florida Gators football team in 1914 and 1915, and the Gators baseball team in 1915 and 1916.
