Roger Folgate attended Freeport High School and graduated in the Class of 1922. He entered Lake Forest College in 1922 and went on to earn seven varsity letters, four in football, two in basketball and one in baseball. Captain of both the basketball and football teams, he was also selected All-Conference in both sports. His leadership went beyond the playing fields as he served as president of Student Government, the Class of 1926, the Athletic Board, and Digamma Alpha Upsilon. His involvement and leadership were honored by being admitted into the Iron Key Society. Graduating in 1926 with a degree in economics, he began his teaching and coaching career at Whitman College where he served as Director of Physical Education. In 1930 he married Ruth Martin '28. He received his Master's Degree from the University of Wisconsin in 1935 and the following year became Athletic Director at Pacific University in Oregon. Roger eventually became the owner of Folgate Music Company and also stayed involved with the Rotary and Kiwanis Clubs. Source: http://www.lakeforest.edu/foresters/rfolgate.htm.
