Daniel M. Frasier was the 25th head college football coach for the Geneva College Golden Tornadoes located in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania and he held that position for three seasons, from 1969 until 1971.[2] His coaching record at Geneva was 9 wins, 16 losses, and 1 ties. As of completion of the 2007 season, this ranks him 16th at Geneva in total wins and 24th at Geneva in winning percentage (0.365)..[3]
Frasier engineered a turaround of the program, when the football team went to what was considered a "laughing stock of the district" to a 8-0 start in 1971 (some records show a 7-0 start and losing the last two games[4]).[5]
Before being head football coach at Geneva, he was assistant football coach under Donald Lederick and was also the head baseball coach. He also played minor league baseball for the Houston Astros farm team.[6]
Upon retirement from college coaching, he entered the private sector and took a career in banking.[7]
