NDC Football Program History

The Notre Dame Falcon Football program was instituted in 2009.  The Falcons played a full 2009 season against non-varsity clubs, and played their first full varsity schedule in 2010.  NDC participated as an NAIA Independent for the 2010 season, and an NCAA-II Independent in 2011, before joining the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) for the 2012 season, and became a charter member of the Mountain East Conference in 2013.  

POINTS OF PRIDE
- 2 Academic All-Americans (Mitchell Shegos 2015, Pedro Powell-2013)
- 4 All-Region Honorees (Doniel Gambrell-2014, Marlon Oden-2014, Mitchell Shegos-2014, Darius James-2015)
- 8 1st Team All-MEC Honorees, 13 Second Team All-MEC Honorees and 12 Honorable Mention All-MEC Honorees.

On Oct. 18, 2014, the Falcons delivered their biggest victory in the history of the program, in a 35-34 upset victory over then unbeaten, and No. 8 Shepherd. The victory marked the first time that the Rams lost an MEC contest, and it was NDC's first victory over a Nationall Ranked opponent. 

Adam Howard was the first Head Coach in the history of the program. He led the program until June 2015, before Assistant Head Coach/Offensive Coordinator Bill Rychel took over as the Head Coach. Rychel was the Head Coach for one year, before accepting a job as the Offensive Coordinator at D-I Savannah State in May of 2016, and Defensive Coordinator/Assistant Head Coach Mike Jacbos took over as the third Head Coach in the history of the program on May 16, 2016.
