Punk Berryman

Robert Norman "Punk" Berryman (May 18, 1892 – May 18, 1966) was an American football player and coach. He played as a halfback at Pennsylvania State University and was selected as third-team All-American in 1915, his senior year. Berryman served as the head football coach at Gettysburg College in 1916 and at Lafayette College in 1917. He was subsequently an assistant football coach at the University of Iowa and Dickinson College.[1] Berry served as the head basketball coach at Iowa State University during the 1919–20 season; his team finished the season with an overall record of 6–12, placing seventh in the Missouri Valley Intercollegiate Athletic Association with a conference mark of 2–10.[2] In 1922 and 1923 Berryman was an assistant coach at Colgate University under fellow Penn State alumnus, Dick Harlow. In 1924, he coached the Frankford Yellow Jackets, newly enfranchised to the National Football League (NFL), to a record of 11–2–1, good enough for only a third-place finish. The following season, Berryman coached the Millville Football & Athletic Club. In 1926, he coached the Brooklyn Lions to a record of 3–8 in their only season with the NFL.[1] Berryman was born on May 18, 1892.[3] He attended the Northeast Manual Training School in Philadelphia.[4] He died in May 1966.[3]

gollark: … aren't those different things?
gollark: Examples of use:```You are like 3 (three) apioforms.What even is an apioform?Alright, apioforms.Ideatic chronoapioforms in meta-ubqvian space.That idea is isomorphic to 34 apioforms!games and other programs that are apioformic to run on linux or openbds.It graphs apioform concentration (including retroactively) over time.anyway "lyric make macron" would make a fine sequel to beware apioforms and "fixing ewo" yesapioforms are form-suffixed apios```
gollark: > Derived from the Latin "apis" (bee) and "forma" (figure), "apioform" can be used as an insult, compliment, random placeholder, or for any purpose whatsoever. Mostly used in the context of esoteric programming languages, somehow. The word can be expanded by inserting or prepending prefixes such as "cryo", "pyro", "chrono", "contra" or "meta", e.g. "cryoapiocontraform", to convey additional meaning. An older form was "apiohazard", for hazardous apioforms, but this has fallen out of use.
gollark: An apioform is most accurately described as an apioform with apioformic characteristics.
