abstract
  • Davis was a lineman for Princeton and a member of the Tigers' "tug-of-war team in 1889" before going on to coach at Wisconsin (1893), Amherst (1894) and Lafayette (1895–98), where he also served as athletic director. He displayed an admirable range of talents. In 1896 alone, Coach Davis organized Lafayette's Law Club; he appeared in a leading role in a stage production of The Rivals at the Easton, Pennsylvania Opera House; he read Longfellow poetry at the Freshman Initiation gala; and he led Lafayette to its first national football championship, an honor he would, himself, bestow upon his team some 37 years after the fact.
