Chicago Football Traditions The “C” Logo

The University of Chicago athletics emblem underwent several changes during the institution’s early years. The first football team in 1892 sported no recognizable emblem on its uniforms. In an effort to provide the team with an identity, the letters “UC” were cut out of brown paper and pasted on the players’ uniforms. In the spring of 1893, the emblem was modified into the form of a monogram that the baseball team incorporated on its uniforms. A single letter was used for the first time in 1894 when the football and track squads displayed an oblong “C” on their uniforms. That emblem remained in existence until 1897 when it was replaced by a “C” in large, round type. Then in 1898, Maroon teams adopted the Chicago “C” emblem, which has been worn to the present day. In 2016, the traditional maroon wishbone “C” received a black outline around the perimeter, with a white outline “C” variant for different colored backgrounds.

Maroon, Maroons & The Phoenix

Maroon and “Maroons” became the University of Chicago’s official color and nickname, respectively, at a meeting of students and faculty on May 5, 1894. Before the University held its first classes on October 1, 1892, the Board of Trustees had selected goldenrod (yellow) as the school’s official color. By 1894, however, Chicago’s legendary football coach Amos Alonzo Stagg believed that a change was necessary. “The yellow ran, soiled easily, and had a regrettable symbolism which our opponents might not be above commenting upon,” said Stagg in his autobiography, Touchdown! Because maroon was not already in use by any major school in the Midwest, Stagg and his associate J.E. Raycroft brought a selection of maroon shades to the 1894 meeting of students and faculty. The meeting attendees made a choice from those ribbons, and the baseball team appeared in that color during its final games of the 1894 season. On July 21, 1894, the first mention of a University of Chicago athletic team as “Maroons” appeared in the Chicago Tribune in an article about the baseball team. The Phoenix – which is featured as part of the University’s official coat of arms, or shield – serves as the school’s mascot. The University of Chicago Board of Trustees adopted the shield in 1910.

The Founders Cup Awarded annually to the winner of the Chicago/Washington-St. Louis game since 1987, the Founders Cup commemorates the first football game played between two UAA schools during the league’s initial year of existence. Washington holds a 23-8 all-time advantage in Founders Cup battles.

Wave The Flag After each home victory, the Maroons gather at midfield and sing “Wave the Flag” by Gordon Erickson:

Wave the flag of old Chicago, Maroon the color grand. Ever shall her team be victors, Known throughout the land. With the grand old man to lead them, Without a peer they’ll stand. Wave again the dear old banner, For they’re heroes, every man!

MWC & NCAA Division III The Midwest Conference

NCAA Division III The University of Chicago has competed at the NCAA Division III level since it was established in 1973. The largest of the three NCAA Divisions, Division III counted as members 451 institutions (20 percent public, 80 percent private) in 2017-18.

The Maroons joined the Midwest Conference as an affiliate member starting in the 2017 season. UChicago football returned to a familiar league from its past – the Maroons previously competed within the Midwest Conference (MWC) as a full member from 1976-87. Beginning in 2017, UChicago became the MWC’s 12th institution that sponsors football. The league is comprised of the 10 full-member schools and football-affiliate member Macalester College. The MWC competes in a divisional format with six teams in the North Division and six teams in the South Division; UChicago joined the North Division for the 2017 and 2018 seasons. The winners of the North and South Divisions then play each other for the conference title, with an automatic bid into the NCAA postseason on the line. UChicago remains a proud founding member of the UAA and will continue membership in all other sports that currently compete in the UAA. The UChicago and Washington-St. Louis football teams will continue playing each other in the Founders Cup game on an annual basis. In the modern era, Maroon football played as an independent from 1969-75 and again in 1987. After spending 11 seasons in the MWC, UChicago helped form the UAA and began football competition in 1988. The Maroons went on to also compete within the SAA as a football affiliate member for the 2015 and 2016 seasons. The Midwest Conference’s membership in 2018 includes 10 private, liberal arts colleges and universities in Illinois, Iowa and Wisconsin: Beloit College, Cornell College, Grinnell College, Illinois College, Knox College, Lake Forest College, Lawrence University, Monmouth College, Ripon College and St. Norbert College.

What is the NCAA Division III? • Division III features student-athletes who are subject to the same admission standards, academic standards, housing, and support services as the general student body. Division III studentathletes are not permitted to receive athletically-related financial aid. • Division III offers an intense and competitive athletics environment for student-athletes who play for the love of the game, without the obligation of an athletics scholarship. • Division III athletics departments place special importance on the impact of athletics on the participants rather than on the spectators. The student-athlete’s experience is of paramount concern. • Division III athletics provides a well-rounded collegiate experience that involves a balance of rigorous academics, competitive athletics, and the opportunity to pursue the multitude of other co-curricular and extra-curricular opportunities. • Division III places primary emphasis on regional in-season and conference competition, while also offering 36 national championships annually.

The Midwest Conference was founded in 1921 by campus presidents and faculty with the goal of establishing an interstate league among similarly minded schools – those which give primary attention to the educational purposes of athletics. Today, member institutions continue to believe that participation in sport enhances the undergraduate experience, providing valuable opportunities in the overall academic program – most significantly the opportunity for student-athlete growth and the realization of personal potential.

• Division III playing season and eligibility standards minimize conflicts between athletics and academics, allowing student-athletes to focus on their academic programs and the achievement of a degree.

The modern-era Midwest Conference was created in the spring of 1994 with the merger of the Midwest Collegiate Athletic Conference (MCAC), which had been sponsoring men’s championships since 1921, and the Midwest Athletic Conference for Women (MACW), which was formed to conduct women’s championship competition in 1977.

• Division III affords student-athletes the opportunity to discover valuable lessons in teamwork, discipline, perseverance, and leadership, which in turn make student-athletes better students and responsible citizens.

UChicago Football 2018

• Division III athletics departments are dedicated to offering broad-based programs with a high number and wide range of athletics participation opportunities for both men and women.

• Division III encourages student-athletes to take advantage of the many opportunities available to them, both within and beyond athletics, so that they may develop their full potential as students, athletes, and citizens.

The University of Chicago The University of Chicago is one of the world’s great intellectual communities and centers of learning. It has achieved particular distinction in faculty scholarship, the training of graduate students, and for its renowned undergraduate education that emphasizes critical thinking, intellectual depth, and cultural breadth. Founded in 1890 by John D. Rockefeller, the University opened its doors for classes on October 1, 1892, with an enrollment of 594 students. President William Rainey Harper presided over a faculty of 103, which included eight former college presidents. Today, the University features a total enrollment of approximately 15,312 students. The University is private, nondenominational, and coeducational, and it includes the undergraduate College, four graduate divisions, six graduate professional schools, the library, the Graham Center of General Studies, and the University of Chicago Press. The University also features several cultural resources, including the Oriental Institute Museum, Court Theatre, Renaissance Society, and the Smart Museum of Art. Extending along both sides of the Midway Plaisance, which was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and used for the World’s Columbian Exposition of 1893, the University occupies a 190acre campus. The English collegiate Gothic style set the general tone for the design and development of the campus. Around a series of tree-shaded quadrangles, imposing buildings of gray limestone with redtile roofs, and deep-set rectangular windows show off elaborate ornamentation, gargoyles and chimeras, and decorated towers. These quadrangles are dominated by Rockefeller Memorial Chapel, with its 207-foot tower, and by the Joseph Regenstein Library, one of the largest academic libraries in the United States. Many campus structures have been designated national historic landmarks, including Frank Lloyd Wright’s Robie House and the site of the first controlled, self-sustaining nuclear reaction marked by the Henry Moore sculpture Nuclear Energy. Chicago has had a major impact on American higher education — inventing the four-quarter system, developing extension courses and programs in the liberal arts for adults, establishing a coherent program of general education for undergraduates, and initiating a full-time medical school teaching faculty. Chicago also pioneered orientation week and gives the nation’s oldest teaching awards. Since the University’s founding, more than 80 recipients of the Nobel Prize have been students, researchers, or faculty. The University is located in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Chicago, one of the world’s most exciting and vibrant cities. About 65 percent of the University’s faculty and their families and nearly all of its students live in the Hyde Park neighborhood. One of Chicago’s biggest tourist attractions, the Museum of Science and Industry, is located here, as well as the DuSable Museum of African-American History and the Weiss Museum of Judaica. Just 15 minutes north of Hyde Park is the Chicago Loop, where students and faculty regularly attend an array of theater, movies, art exhibits, museums, and restaurants. Some of Chicago’s main cultural attractions are the Art Institute, the Lyric Opera, the Chicago Symphony, the Goodman Theatre, and the Museum of Contemporary Art. Scores of other professional and community theater, dance, and visual arts organizations are active in the city. Architecturally, Chicago is the home of many major developments in 20th-century architecture and urban design. One of the nation’s greatest sports cities, Chicago is the home of two Major League Baseball teams – the White Sox and the Cubs – as well as the National Basketball Association Bulls, the National Football League Bears, the National Hockey League Blackhawks, the Major League Soccer Fire, and the Women’s National Basketball Association Sky.

UChicago Football 2018

Athletics at UChicago The University of Chicago Department of Athletics and Recreation aims to enrich the life of the whole person. We are invested in competitive excellence as we challenge our student-athletes to develop into their best selves as athletes, teammates, students and ultimately, citizens of the world. As athletes they embody physical strength and learn the value of movement to incorporate healthy activity and habits into their lives. Through sport we are committed to teaching how to work collaboratively to reach performance goals, how to embrace diversity of thought and culture, how to persevere through failure with resiliency, how to compete with integrity. We strive to engage our community through fitness and recreation to encourage holistic and healthy living, to build confidence, and to confront challenges physically and mentally.

The UAA UChicago, which sponsors 20 intercollegiate sports, is a charter member of the University Athletic Association, an NCAA Division III conference formed in 1986 as a bold statement of what college athletics can and should be — that it is highly desirable and possible for a group of committed institutions to seek excellence in athletics while holding the student-athlete and the institution’s academic mission as the center of focus. The eight members of the UAA include Brandeis University, Carnegie Mellon University, Case Western Reserve University, Emory University, New York University, the University of Chicago, the University of Rochester, and Washington University in St. Louis. With its membership in the UAA, UChicago offers its student-athletes the opportunity to compete against athletes and teams from among the top research institutions in the country, as well as travel opportunities comparable to those offered by members of major Division I conferences. UChicago has played a major role in helping the UAA attain its goal of achieving the proper balance between athletics and academics. In Reclaiming the Game: College Sports and Education Values, author William Bowen –– president of the Mellon Foundation –– posed the question, “How has the UAA managed to mount what is, by all signs, a successful intercollegiate program without paying the academic price that is so evident in other similar college athletics conferences?” Bowen continued, “The active involvement of the University of Chicago, with its emphasis on core academic values, has without question been a help in achieving and maintaining this policy.”

Success on the Playing Field In 2017-18, UChicago finished 12th in the nation among 329 NCAA Division III institutions in the final standings for the Learfield Directors’ Cup, which recognizes the top overall athletic programs in the country. UChicago teams notched national top-15 finishes in women’s soccer (NCAA runner-up), men’s soccer (NCAA semifinals), men’s tennis (NCAA semifinals), women’s tennis (NCAA quarterfinals), men’s swimming and diving (12th), women’s swimming and diving (14th) and women’s cross country (14th). That same year, the Maroons also featured 35 All-Americans, 34 national qualifiers, 36 all-region selections, 3 UAA MVPs, 6 UAA/MWC Rookies of the Year and 117 All-UAA performers.

Athletes & Academic Excellence

The intercollegiate program at the University of Chicago directly supports the College’s commitment to excellence, and helps to produce scholar-athletes whose primary focus is on their academic achievements. The University of Chicago has a long history of outstanding studentathletes who have distinguished themselves in the classroom. During the University of Chicago’s early years as a member of the Big Ten Conference, the athletics program counted numerous distinguished scholar-athletes among its ranks, including 1910 Rhodes Scholar Edwin Hubble, a basketball player who later became a distinguished scientist for whom the Hubble Space Telescope is named. UChicago has furthered that tradition in recent years as its student-athletes have continued to compile an extraordinary record of academic and athletic accomplishment, highlighted by four Rhodes Scholars since 1996, and 297 UAA All-Academic Recognition Award recipients in 2017-18.

Award-Winning Facility In the fall of 2003, Chicago Athletics entered a new era with the opening of the $51 million Gerald Ratner Athletics Center. Designed by famed architect Cesar Pelli, the 150,000-square-foot facility includes a 1,658-seat competition gymnasium which is home to the Chicago basketball, volleyball, and wrestling teams. In addition to the competition gymnasium, the facility features the 50-meter MyersMcLoraine Pool, the Bernard J. DelGiorno Fitness Center, a dance room, classrooms, the Athletics Hall of Fame, locker rooms and offices. In short, the University of Chicago provides student-athletes with what might be the best balance in higher education: an extraordinary commitment to academic excellence recognized all over the world, a high-quality intercollegiate athletics program consistent with its academic mission, unique conference travel and competition, and outstanding athletics and recreational facilities.

One of the great innovators in the development of college football, Amos Alonzo Stagg served as head football coach at Chicago from 1892 to 1932. Stagg compiled a record of 227-111-26 and led the Maroons to seven Big Ten Conference titles (1899, 1905, 1907, 1908, 1913, 1922, 1924). Under Stagg’s guidance, Chicago emerged as one of the nation’s most formidable football powers during the first quarter of the 20th century. Stagg’s impact on the game of football began during his college playing days at Yale, where he was named to the first-ever All-America team as an end in 1889. Stagg began his coaching career the next year at the Springfield, Massachusetts, YMCA, now Springfield College. Stagg formed the school’s first football team, and among his players was James Naismith, the inventor of basketball. William Rainey Harper, who was Stagg’s divinity professor at Yale, was appointed the first president of the University of Chicago and in 1892 named Stagg head football coach and director of the department of physical culture, a post Stagg would retain for 41 years. In addition to his football duties, Stagg coached track for 32 years, baseball for 19 years, and basketball for one season. He also helped to organize the Big Ten Conference, then known as the Western Conference. Among the innovations credited to Stagg are the tackling dummy, the huddle, the reverse and man-in-motion plays, the lateral pass, uniform numbers, and varsity letters. After retiring from Chicago in 1932, Stagg served as head coach at Pacific from 1932 to 1946, then served as an assistant coach to his son at Susquehanna until 1952. He passed away in 1965 at the age of 102. Stagg was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1951 as both a player and coach. The NCAA recognized Stagg’s contributions by designating the Division III championship game the Stagg Bowl. Legendary Notre Dame coach Knute Rockne said of Stagg, “All football comes from Stagg.”

Early Era History Chronological History 1890s 1890 William Rainey Harper, the University of Chicago’s first president, appoints Amos Alonzo Stagg the school’s first head football coach. Stagg would serve in that role for 41 years, during which time he would revolutionize college football. 1892 Chicago begins its initial year of intercollegiate football competition ... In their first game against a collegiate foe, the Maroons battle Northwestern to a scoreless tie ... Chicago defeats Illinois 10-4 to mark its first win against a major college opponent. 1893 Chicago merchant Marshall Field donates the use of campus land for home football games. Initially named Marshall Field, it would eventually become Stagg Field ... Chicago plays on Thanksgiving Day for the first time, losing to Michigan 28-10. 1894 Stagg adopts maroon as Chicago’s official color ... Chicago embarks on an unprecedented 6,200-mile tour of the Pacific Coast, during which it splits a pair of games with Stanford. After defeating the Cardinal 24-4 on Christmas Day, the Maroons fall 12-0 in Los Angeles just four days later. Many college football historians consider the Dec. 29 contest to be the genesis of the modern-day college bowl game.

Chicago vs. Michigan – Stagg Field 1927

1921 Chicago defeats Princeton 9-0, marking the first victory by a Western team over one of the “Big Three” of Harvard, Yale, and Princeton.

Following the dismal campaign, the University of Chicago discontinues intercollegiate football during the presidency of Robert Maynard Hutchins ... The program would remain dormant at the varsity level until 1969.

On Dec. 2, 1942, beneath the abandoned west stands of Stagg Field, Enrico Fermi and a team of scientists achieved the first self-sustaining chain reaction, which led to the development of the atomic bomb. Today, the Joseph Regenstein Library stands on the site of the original Stagg Field at 1100 East 57th Street.

Early Era History Honor Roll Jay Berwanger Heisman Trophy Winner 1935 In November 1935, University of Chicago senior Jay Berwanger received a telegram from Manhattan’s Downtown Athletic Club, informing him that he had won a trophy for being the “most valuable football player east of the Mississippi.” The prize, then known as the Downtown Athletic Club Trophy, was renamed the Heisman Trophy the following year. Renowned for his versatility, Berwanger played nearly every position on offense and defense. During the 1935 campaign, he rushed for 577 yards, passed for 405, returned kickoffs for 359, scored six touchdowns, and added five PATs for 41 points. Following the 1935 season, the Chicago Tribune awarded Berwanger the Silver Football as the Most Valuable Player in the Big Ten. In a poll of 107 opposing players he faced during his senior year, 104 said the six-foot, 195-pound Berwanger was the best halfback they had ever seen. Berwanger was the only Heisman recipient tackled by a future United States president – Gerald Ford – during a 1934 game between Chicago and Michigan. “Jay was most deserving of his Heisman Trophy. He could do it all,” President Ford recalled. “He was an outstanding runner as well a passer and kicker. I remember him fondly as one of the greatest athletes I’ve known.” In addition to his distinction as the first-ever Heisman Trophy recipient, Berwanger was the first player chosen in the inaugural National Football League draft in 1936. He was selected by the Philadelphia Eagles, who traded his rights to the Chicago Bears. Berwanger turned down the opportunity to pursue a professional football career, citing low pay. During World War II, he enrolled in the United States Navy’s flight-training program and became a naval officer. After the war, he established a plastic and rubber manufacturing company in Chicago’s western suburbs. In 1954, Berwanger was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame. Then in 1989, he was included on Sports Illustrated’s 25-year anniversary All-America team, which honored players whose accomplishments extended beyond the football field. Berwanger died during the summer of 2002.

Thirty years after the University of Chicago discontinued intercollegiate football in 1939, the sport returned to varsity status at the NCAA Division III level. The genesis of the return of football occurred in 1956, when Walter Hass was appointed director of athletics A long-time college football coach, Hass initiated a football class as part of the physical education curriculum, which by 1960 evolved into a club program competing against other teams in the area. Prompted by Hass’s strident lobbying efforts as well as a student body petition, the University of Chicago elevated football to varsity status beginning with the 1969 season. Hass, who guided the Maroons to a 2-4 record in 1969, continued coaching through 1975 and during that span continued to upgrade the schedule with quality opponents. His efforts established the foundation for Division III football at Chicago. Hass was selected for induction into the University of Chicago Athletics Hall of Fame as part of the Class of 2007. The Maroons celebrated the 40-year anniversary of the return of varsity football during the team’s 2009 Homecoming game against Denison University. Members of the 1969 squad, the first to play varsity football after it was eliminated 30 years earlier, served as honorary team captains for the pregame coin toss.
