The Lions, who had a 5-8 record a year earlier, began the season with seven victories. However, second-year coach Joe Velarde, writing in Lines on Lions, the athletic department newsletter, warned alumni not to get too carried away because the toughest part of the schedule remained. Velarde was right. The Lions did beat Harvard and archrival NYU, but dropped close matches to Navy and Penn. But that was just the warmup for the postseason, and there the Lions were unbeatable, capturing seven Eastern Intercollegiate Fencing Association and NCAA championships, Theincluding team thewas first led byNCAA senior team captain title ever Bob wonNielsen, by Columbia who posted in any an incrediblesport. 27-2 record in the regular season before repeating as NCAA and IFA foil champion.

  • Wally Koppisch: Great Expectations
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 23, No. 6 (2001) Wally Koppisch: Great Expectations by Jeffrey Miller Walter Koppisch was a local hero. While playing high school ball at Masten Park High--now City Honors-- in Buffalo, he led his team to three consecutive Harvard Cup championships. He went on to star at Columbia University, where he captained the Lions for three seasons--playing in a backfield which also featured future New York Yankee immortal Lou Gehrig--and was selected to Walter Camp’s All-America squad in 1924. So when it was announced in September 1925 that Koppisch would be returning to Buffalo to coach--at 23 years of age, making him one of the youngest head coaches in league history-- and play for the Bisons, local sports enthusiasts were indeed delighted. But Koppisch’s signing almost didn’t happened. The New York Giants, a new N.F.L franchise in 1925, were seeking a big name around which they could build a team, and Walter’s was the top name on their list. Koppisch’s four brilliant years at New York- based Columbia gave him name recognition and the Giants instant credibility in the league. However, according to Giants historian Dr. Harry March, the Gothamites called off their pursuit at the request of the Buffalo Bisons. As March later recounted in his book, Pro Football--Its Ups and Downs: Koppisch was a distinct asset in New York by reason of his four years at Columbia, but when the Buffalo management came to us and pleaded that he would be the making of the Buffalo team-- his home town--we turned Santa Claus and let them have him to manage, play, captain, and coach.
