The History of McDaniel College since its founding as Western Maryland College in 1867.

1911

Wherever its name came from, the Green Terror’s tales were woven into the College’s early football history when Carl Cleveland “Molly” Twigg, class of 1911, tossed the first forward pass, at least, that is, according to legendary sportswriter Grantland Rice.

1923

No one is quite sure of when the name “Green Terror” was first used, but the first known appearance in print is in the Western Maryland College Monthly, released October 15, 1923.

1929

That mark included a 27-game winning streak beginning in 1928 and ending in 1931. It was Harlow who guided the school’s first undefeated, untied team to an 11-0 mark in 1929.

1934

In his final regular season game in 1934, Shepherd’s flock handed Georgetown a 13-0 loss before a Baltimore Stadium (the predecessor to Memorial Stadium at 33rd Street) crowd of 20,000, completing what was perhaps the finest season of Green Terror football.

1999

Sermarini and Harris would combine for five straight Centennial Conference Offensive Player of the Year Awards, while Selecky and Wilchinski bookend the four straight Defensive Player of the Year awards accumulated since the 1999 season.

But 70 years after Harlow’s gridders defeated their state rivals from the University of Maryland to run their record to 11-0, the modern edition of the Green Terror defeated an old rival of the Harlow era, Catholic University, in the first round of the 1999 NCAA Playoffs.

2002

In 2002, the Board of Trustees changed the name of the college from Western Maryland College to McDaniel College.

2009

Entering the 2009 season, Keating is the College’s most victorious coach, and is now left to chase one milestone.

2011

McDaniel College was also home to the summer training camp of the Baltimore Colts and later Baltimore Ravens NFL team until the 2011 Season when the team relocated training camp to their Owings Mills facility.
