Football

Division III · Season September–November · Home at Millwright Stadium

The program

Ironclad football competes in NCAA Division III as a member program of the athletics department. The season runs roughly September–November. There are no athletic scholarships; every roster member is admitted and receives financial aid exactly as any other student, and eligibility rules are written around finishing the degree on time.

Last season

The team finished 6–4, its fourth straight winning season, with a defense built around a senior linebacker who led the conference in tackles and a walk-on kicker who did not miss inside 40 yards all year.

Coaching

The head coach is in his eleventh season, the longest-tenured head coach in the athletic department. Assistant coaches, an athletic trainer assigned to the program, and a strength coach round out the staff, and every athlete is assigned an academic advisor in athletics who coordinates with their major department.

Home venue and how to attend

Home events are at Millwright Stadium. Current UW–Porter Falls students enter regular-season home events free with a Porter Card. Single-game and season tickets for the public, along with accessible-seating and parking information, are listed by event on the athletics site. A recent highlight: a homecoming win during Millrace Week in front of roughly 4,500 people, decided by a goal-line stand in the final minute.

Roster snapshot

The roster is roughly about 95 players, the largest roster in the department. Nearly a third are first-generation college students; the program's six-year graduation rate is 79 percent, above the university average. Rosters, schedules, and results for the current season are posted on the athletics site and updated after each event.

Division III, and why it shows here

Practice and travel are scheduled around required labs, studios, and clinical rotations, not the other way around — a wrestler with an evening chemistry lab or a nursing player with a hospital rotation is accommodated, not benched. Missed class time for travel is minimized by the move to a nearer conference beginning in 2027–28, and the program's graduation and academic-progress rates are published alongside its win–loss record.

Fictional information

UW–Porter Falls is a work of parody. Every team, coach, result, statistic and roster detail on this page is invented; nothing here describes a real athletic program.
