A three-sport standout, Joe Remus was a star in the ring for the Black Knights for three seasons. He was the first Cadet to win an intercollegiate boxing championship after capturing the 175-pound Eastern Intercollegiate Boxing Association crown in 1932. He earned an automatic berth into the National Collegiates and Olympic tryouts following the win.
Remus, a 1933 graduate, led the team to a 6-1-1 mark in 1932 and was elected captain in his senior season. He capped his final season by going undefeated in all regular-season bouts and helped the team to a 4-0-1 record. Remus earned class numbers in football, baseball and boxing, while taking home a major "A" following his junior and senior campaigns.
