Preston Smith (American football)

Preston Smith was the second head football coach for the Colgate University Raiders located in the Village of Hamilton in Madison County, New York and he held that position for the 1892 season. His overall coaching record at Colgate was 3 wins, 0 losses, and 0 ties. As of the 2007 season, this ranks him 26th at Colgate in terms of total wins and first at Colgate in terms of winning percentage.^[1]

The 1892 team was the first in Colgate history to go undefeated with victories over Hamilton, Rochester, and St. John's Academy. Some sources say that the 1892 team was coached by Samuel Colgate, Jr. and not Preston Smith.
