Wallace C. "Wallie" Winter was a college football player and coach. He served as the head football coach at the University of Minnesota for the 1893 Golden Gophers season, leading the team to a 6–0 overall record including 3–0 in Intercollegiate Athletic Association of the Northwest league play. He had been an All-American tackle at Yale University and was known for working the players extremely hard, to the point that "they considered the actual games to be breathers compared to the scrimmages." but agreed to the conditions as long as he could act as the referee.
