abstract
| - John Cherberg was born in Pensacola, Florida, the youngest of twelve children from a butcher father who emigrated from Europe. In 1919, his family moved to Seattle, Washington. He played football at Queen Anne High School before graduating in 1929. He attended the University of Washington (UW) and played halfback on the football team. Cherberg graduated in 1933 with a degree in economics. After graduation he taught classes and coached football at Cleveland and Queen Anne high schools in Seattle, where he led both schools to state football championships. He joined the UW football staff in 1946. The three seasons he served as head coach of the UW football team were controversial. His record of 10 wins, 18 losses, and 2 ties was identified as the second worst in Seattle's history in a 2006 article by Seattle Post-Intelligencer columnist Jim Moore. The team was involved in a payoff scandal that led to NCAA sanctions for the school and the firing of Cherberg in 1955.
