Leo Calland was an outstanding athlete at Broadway High School in Seattle, where he played football under coach Gus Henderson. Henderson became the head football coach at USC in Los Angeles in 1919, and Calland followed him south. He lettered as a guard for three seasons (1920–1922) and as a senior was named both team captain and most inspirational player on USC's first Rose Bowl team. Calland was named player of the game in the Trojans' 14–3 victory over Penn State on New Year's Day, the first bowl game in the current namesake stadium, and also lettered in basketball at USC.
