[1] In high school, he was a running back and punter and was selected by the Detroit News as a first-team All-State football player for the State of Michigan in both 1929 and 1930.

[1] Regeczi enrolled at the University of Michigan where he won letters in football, basketball and baseball.

[2] Regeczi gained the majority of his yards against Cornell on an 85-yard touchdown run from punt formation in the first quarter.

[4] While he was regarded as a good running back, Regeczi won his greatest acclaim as a punter.

In October 1933, George Kirksey, writing for the United Press, said: "Regeczi, the Hungarian halfback, is probably the greatest punter for distance and accuracy in the country ..."[5] Regeczi suffered a knee injury at the start of the 1934 season and had difficulty regaining his speed after the injury.

Due in part to injuries to Regeczi and quarterback Bill Renner, Kipke's offense in 1934 was sometimes referred to as "Punt, Pass and Prayer."

"[13] After graduating from Michigan, Regeczi turned down an offer to play professional baseball in the Detroit Tigers organization.

[14] He later taught and coached at Burton Junior High School in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
