  • Letter from the President
    VARSITY O 2019 FALL NEWS LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT Fellow Varsity O Members, Happy Fall! Autumn officially means many things: students back on The Ohio State campus, the crisp air with crunchy leaves beneath each step, our fall-sport Buckeyes taking their respective fields and courts, Saturdays in The SHOE, and… Varsity O’s most exciting time of year! In early September, we celebrated our 42nd year of The Ohio State University Athletics Hall of Fame. Our incredible inductees were legends in their sport, Olympic medalists, international icons, and can I just say, “Amazing human beings that were fun, kind, humble, and gracious to be awarded with such prestige!” As we roll into October, I want to remind all of you of our Homecoming Tailgate which will be at the French Fieldhouse on October 5th from 4-7pm prior to the Michigan State game. This is a great opportunity to join Varsity O and fellow Buckeyes for a food buffet, cash-bar, music, corn-hole, photo booth, and other fun surprises we have planned. We will also be celebrating our Jim Jones Career Achievement Award and Varsity O Loyalty award winners as well! Through the 2019-2020 academic year, the University is celebrating its storied and proud history of 150 years. We are calling it, “The Sesquicentennial Year of Celebration”. And although our Athletic Department does not date quite that far back, certainly the contributions and traditions of OSU Athletics has played a storied role in the history of the BEST university in the country. Since the earliest days, OSU athletes have inspired millions across the globe, and have delivered some of the most historic and thrilling moments in collegiate sports.

  • Ohio State Football Topic Guide for Chronicling America (
    Ohio State Football Topic Guide for Chronicling America (http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov) Introduction The Ohio State University football team was first organized in 1890 when George Cole, an undergraduate student, convinced Alexander Lilley to be the team’s coach. Their first game was played on May 3, 1890 against Ohio Wesleyan University where the Buckeyes came out victorious, 20-14. In 1902, the Buckeyes joined the Ohio Athletic Conference (OAC) and won two conference championships in 1906 and 1912. Ohio State would stay a member of the OAC until 1912, opting to join The Big Ten Conference (formerly the Western Conference) in 1913. As a member of the Big Ten, the Ohio State University has won the Conference Championship 34 times, the National Championship 7 times, and gone undefeated 9 times. The Buckeyes have also had 7 players win the Heisman Trophy, making it tied for the most of any team and the only team with a two-time winner. Ohio State is considered to be one of the most successful football programs in college football history. Important Dates . May 3, 1890: Ohio State plays its first football game. October 28, 1901: Center John Sigrist dies as a result of a crushed spinal cord suffered two days prior against Western Reserve, putting the future of the football team in doubt. 1913: Ohio State joins the Big Ten Conference. 1916: Led by star player Chic Harley, Ohio State wins its first Big Ten Conference title. October 21, 1922: Ohio State formally dedicates their new stadium, Ohio Stadium, but loses to their rivals, the Michigan Wolverines, 19-0.
