[3] Woodeshick played college football at West Virginia University (WVU) as a running back, from 1960-62.

He was chosen to play in the 1963 Senior Bowl and was named a member of the 1960-69 WVU All-Time football team.

[7] From 1963-1965, Woodeshick was a backup running back, playing sparingly on offense and starting only one game.

In 1966, he was given the opportunity to start four games and averaged 3.9 yards per carry in 85 rushing attempts.

He was selected to the Pro Bowl and was named second team All-Pro by the Associated Press (AP).

[3] Needing another 53 yards, he had to leave the last game of the season against the Minnesota Vikings in the third quarter with an injury that required ten stitches above his right eye.

[9] Woodeshick had played in a game earlier that year with a flu so severe that he lost 15 pounds in a week, though he was not as effective as normal.

[4] In a 2007 sportswriter poll, Woodeshick was listed as the 47th greatest all-time Eagle player by the Philadelphia Inquirer.

[4] During his off-seasons, Woodeshick attended night courses at the Wharton School of Finance of the University of Pennsylvania.

[20] He made an uncredited appearance as a member of the 325th Evac in the climactic football game in the film M*A*S*H, where he and former Eagle teammate Jack Concannon are shown passing a joint.

Eagles great Timmy Brown, whom Woodeshick had bested in the 40-yard dash years earlier, was also in the movie, but as one of the stars.
