MERRIMACK WARRIORS FOOTBALL
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Merrimack College's football program competes at the FCS level within the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference, representing North Andover, Massachusetts, a community located roughly 30 miles north of Boston. The Warriors field a 100-player roster under head coach Mike Gennetti, who leads a program rooted in the college's 1947 founding. With an undergraduate enrollment of 5,862 students, Merrimack provides athletic opportunities across its MAAC conference membership, which includes eight other institutions competing in the Northeast region.
The Warriors play their home contests at their on-campus venue while competing in the fall season alongside other FCS programs. Gennetti's squad operates within the structure of NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision, a level that emphasizes competitive balance and regional conference play. As a program within a relatively young athletic department compared to some Northeast competitors, Merrimack's football initiative reflects the college's broader commitment to varsity sports, with the MAAC serving as the primary conference for scheduling and conference championship opportunities throughout the season.
