SUMMARY VIDEO

Summary: It was the last Hawkeye football team to go without a head coach when the university decided to forgo hiring a professional football coach. The plan backfired, and although the team posted victories over Parsons and Penn College, they failed to score in each of their five losses.

Conference: Western Interstate University Football Association

Head Coach: No coach
