As a member of the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame, the Rockhurst Football program has been a consistently successful program throughout the KC area and the state of Missouri.
Coach Kelly Donohoe patrols the sidelines with a dedicated staff of successful and passionate coaches who aim to teach young men about team work, resiliency and arising to “find a way” as Hall of Famer and former Coach Tony Severino used to challenge the Hawklets.
Football is the largest sport by participation and a no cut sport with a Varsity/JV combined team, Sophomore team and two Freshman teams (A & B).
The 2025 season ended with a record of 9-3 and District Runner-Up. Four players were named 1st Team All-District and four more were 2nd Team All-District.
