One of the most celebrated signal callers in Seahawk history, Dan Coughlin (1961-1964) amassed 3,634 yards on 258 completions, both of which still rank among the top-10 in Wagner annals. His then school-records for single-season passing yards, career passing yards and completions stood for all lasted at least 23 years before being broken.
 
The quarterback who did the majority of passing to Hall of Famer and eventual NFL player and coach Rich Kotite, Coughlin was the leader of the undefeated 1964 team and was selected as a Little All-American. During his final three years, Wagner owned a 20-7-1 record with Coughlin as the starter, playing under Hall of Fame coaches Mickey Sullivan and Bob Hicks. The late Coughlin is survived by three children.
