Biography
A native of Terre Haute, Indiana, Hathaway attended Indiana University. In November 1917 Hathaway made a 27-yard field goal early in the fourth quarter for the Hoosiers only points that game. However, it was the first score ever made against Ohio State that season.
Hathaway made his National Football League debut in 1920 with the Muncie Flyers. In 1922, Hathaway led the NFL with 9 extra points.[1] Also in 1922 he helped the Canton Bulldogs win the 1922 NFL Championship. In 1925 he and the Pottsville Maroons won the 1925 NFL Championship, before the title was stripped from the team due to a still-disputed rules violation. He later said that during his time with Pottsville, he was receiving $100 for playing in just one game, while the local miners working there did not make that in a month.[2]
