He played at Princeton University from 1894 to 1897 at the end position, and was twice named to the College Football All-America Team. Cochran served as the head football coach at the University of California, Berkeley from 1898 to 1899, the United States Naval Academy in 1900, and his alma mater, Princeton, in 1902, compiling a career head coaching record of 29–5–3.[1]
