Oktavec came to take charge in the fall of '25. The college had lost 37 consecutive games scoring only one touchdown in all these games. Although Kent won but one game she can boast of going through a whole season with but one defeat. The success of this season cannot be attributed to any one player but we do owe Coach Wagoner much praise for the success of the past season. His general good spirits and his contagious enthusiasm have already won for him the respect of the college men and there is no doubt but what his success for another season will prove just as successful.1926 The Chestnut Burr Students of Kent State College 1926 105 https://www.library.kent.edu/burr/1926 Schedule y October 17 1925 Hiram Terriers Hiram Kent, OH T 0-0 1926 The Chestnut Burr, p. 116. at 1925 Edinboro Fighting Scots Edinboro Edinboro, PA T 0-0 November 7 at 1925 Indiana Normal Indiana Normal (PA) Indiana, PA T 6-6 Indiana Normal Ties With Kent Pittsburgh Daily Post November 8, 1925 28 https://www.newspapers.com/clip/96947760/ndiana-normal-ties-with-kent/ Newspapers.com November 14 1925 West Liberty Hilltoppers West Liberty Normal<hc> Kent, OH W 7-6 Kent State Eleven To Play Liberty Team The Akron Beacon Journal November 12, 1925 https://www.newspapers.com/clip/54229474/kent-state-eleven-to-play-liberty-team/ Newspapers.com November 21 1925 Findlay Oilers Findlay Kent, OH L 0-12 Roster The roster of the 1925 Kent state football team was as follows:1926 The Chestnut Burr, p. 108.
