The 1893 West Virginia Mountaineers football team represented West Virginia University in the 1893 college football season. Led by F. William Rane in his first year as head coach, the Mountaineers finished the season with a record of two wins and one loss (2–1). The season marked a significant milestone for the program, as the October 7 victory over Mt. Pleasant was the first win in West Virginia University football history. The Mountaineers had gone 0–1 in their inaugural 1891 season and did not field a team in 1892 before returning to competition under Rane. Wiki link
