Some Famous People called Lew Andreas
Lew Andreas
Lewis P. Andreas (February 25, 1895 – June 16, 1983) was an American football and basketball coach and college athletic administrator. He was the head coach for Syracuse University's men's basketball and football programs beginning in the 1920s. The Sterling, Illinois native played baseball, basketball and football at University of Illinois as a freshman before transferring to Syracuse. He then played football and baseball, but not basketball, for the Orangemen (now Orange) before embarking on his coaching career.
Andreas coached the Orangemen basketball team from 1924 to 1950, except for two years in World War II when the team was suspended due to travel restrictions. He guided the Orangemen basketball program to a 355–134 (.726) overall record in 24 years. Led by standout Vic Hanson, his 1925–26 team finished the season with a 19–1 record and was retroactively named the national champion by the Helms Athletic Foundation and the Premo-Porretta Power Poll. In football, Andreas compiled a 15–10–3 overall record between 1927 and 1929.
He also 'had a cup of coffee' in the professional leagues as a player for the Syracuse Pros. He is buried at Oakwood Cemetery in Syracuse, Onondaga County, New York, USA at Sect S plot 200 with the Memorial ID 117732131.
