Because Lewis E. Solomon competed in the university's very early days, no statistical information is available. He competed in football, basketball, and baseball for two years each and was captain of the 1917-18 basketball team.
He left school in 1918 to serve in the military during World War I and then returned to OBU to earn his degree.
From Reed, Oklahoma, Solomon served as an OBU staff member from 1924-1967. He taught education and was a long time dean of liberal arts at the school. He served 11 years as the school's faculty representative to the Big Four Conference and the Oklahoma Collegiate Athletic Conference.
He died in 1993.
