Y-Day Friday | Watch Out for the Penalty Flag!

Wear YSU gear every Friday for a chance to WIN a prize from our social media team.

Did you know that the penalty flag was created by former Youngstown State University coach, Dwight Dike Beede on Oct. 17, 1941? It was first used in a game against Oklahoma City University at Youngstown’s Rayen Stadium. Today the penalty flag is used in every competitive football game throughout the world!

We’re calling infractions! Every Friday, the @ysu_experience social media team, led by Lexie Napolitan, will serve as “referees” and calling “FOUL” if you are caught in another school’s gear. Watch social media for how it all turns out!
