Preston Hopkins Smith (May 17, 1871 – December 16, 1945) was the second head football coach for the Colgate University Raiders located in the Village of Hamilton in Madison County, New York and he held that position for the 1892 season.〔http://archive.org/stream/generalcatalogue00colgrich/generalcatalogue00colgrich_djvu.txt〕〔()〕 His overall coaching record at Colgate was 3 wins, 0 losses, and 0 ties. As of the 2007 season, this ranks him 26th at Colgate in terms of total wins and first at Colgate in terms of winning percentage.〔(Colgate Sports ) 2007 Football Media Guide〕 The 1892 team was the first in Colgate history to go undefeated with victories over Hamilton, Rochester, and St. John's Academy.

Smith attended Colgate and received a Bachelor of Philosophy degree in 1893.〔()〕 He played on the football team from 1890 to 1893, serving as captain in 1891 and 1892 (player-coach in the latter year).
