Kopf, Frank A.

A graduate of the University of Illinois in 1916, Frank A. Kopf served as a teacher and coach at Tech High School in Atlanta from 1920 to 1940. During the same time period, he also wrote columns about sports for The Atlanta Journal. He created detailed diagrams of specific Georgia Tech football games for the paper, which Tech football coach William A. Alexander used to plan strategies for subsequent games. Kopf went on to join the Army during World War II, returning to Atlanta after the war to serve as an assistant professor of chemistry at Georgia Tech from 1948 to 1950. In 1947, he retired from the Army as a Colonel; two years later he retired from the National Guard of Georgia, where he was a Brigadier General.
