  • Easterday was born in Lisbon, Ohio. He was an all-state basketball player and held the state record in the pole vault. Before enrolling in college, Easterday also played on sandlot and hometown teams from Ambridge, Salem, Beaver Falls and other western Pennsylvania and eastern Ohio teams. In 1913, Easterday enrolled at the University of Pittsburgh. When he announced that he wanted to play football for "Pop" Warner, his comments initially "invoked some chuckles from officials there." Easterday made the team as a halfback and scatback. He played on Pitt teams that ran up a 33-game winning streak before losing to Syracuse by a score of 24–3 in 1919. As a senior in 1918, Easterday was selected as a first-team All-American by Tom Thorpe, sports editor of The New York Times, and Robert "Tiny" Maxwell, sports editor of The Philadelphia Inquirer. Walter Camp praised Easterday as “one of the finest forward pass snaggers Camp had ever seen.” Pitt's undefeated 1917 team was known as "The Fighting Dentists" because on occasion every position was filled by dental students. The dental students on the 1917 team included Easterday, Skip Gougler, "Tank" McLaren, "Jake" Stahl. and Jock Sutherland. Easterday also ran track at Pitt and played for the university's basketball teams, serving as the team captain in 1917.
