Born in Kalamazoo, Michigan, Magner captained Cornell to an undefeated season in 1911, winning an intercollegiate ice hockey championship. After graduating, he played for the New York Highlanders in 1911. In 13 career games, he had 7 hits in 33 at-bats. He batted and threw right-handed.
After his brief professional career, Magner became a coach, first returning to his alma mater and the hockey team after the resignation of Talbot Hunter. Magner's tenure was short, lasting only a season, but he managed to produce another perfect campaign, this time going winless in 7 contests. Cornell surrendered 51 goals in 7 games while scoring only 8. In 1915, he coached the University at Buffalo baseball team.[1]
He was a member of the Quill and Dagger society while in college and served as a lieutenant in the U.S. Naval Reserve during World War I. Magner died in Chillicothe, Ohio and is buried at Dayton National Cemetery in Dayton, Ohio.[2]
