Early years
Born in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, Harshman moved to the Pacific Northwest as a child and graduated from Lake Stevens High School in Lake Stevens, Washington, north of Seattle. He attended Pacific Lutheran University in Parkland, where he lettered thirteen times in four sports and graduated in 1942. Harshman served three years in the U.S. Navy during World War II, then returned to PLU to coach. A fullback, he was selected by the Chicago Cardinals in the fifteenth round (134th overall) of the 1942 NFL Draft.
Collegiate career
While at his alma mater (1945–58), Harshman was also the head football coach from 1951 to 1957, compiling a 27–26–2 (.509) record, and also led the baseball team for the last five seasons. He moved east to Washington State University in Pullman in 1958 to succeed Jack Friel and coached the Cougars for 13 seasons. When Husky head coach Tex Winter left for the National Basketball *ociation (NBA) in 1971, Harshman moved across the state to the University of Washington in Seattle. He compiled a 637–444 (.589) overall record. Pressured by the university administration to step down, Harshman involuntarily retired from coaching at age 67 in 1985, following consecutive conference *les and NCAA tournament appearances.
