Dan Hayes was the starting quarterback for the Highlanders final two football teams, and led UCR to two straight undefeated championship seasons in the California Collegiate Athletic Association. He threw at least one touchdown pass in each of his 21 games during that time, and still holds 16 UC Riverside career and single season records. He led the nation in passing as a senior, and earned All-America honors in the process before going on to a successful high school and college coaching career.
