Football

OVERTIME! Challenge extended through March 13; CAF challenge pool increased to $225,000 thanks to an anonymous donor.

When the Colgate community raises $813,000 across all Colgate athletics designations, it will unlock $225,000 for the Colgate Athletics Fund thanks to a generous group of donors.

In honor of Coach Fitzpatrick, the first $50,000 in gifts to Colgate Football are being matched dollar for dollar by Dan ’86, H’19 and Ellie Hurwitz P’17,’20 and Brion ’76 and Sabrina Applegate.

Thanks to an anonymous donor, when 194 football alumni make a gift during March Mania, it will unlock an additional $5,000 for the program.
