Before the Roosevelt Football team ever played a game in the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference, preseason expectations were for the Lakers to fail in their debut and finish last in the conference.

To be fair, the 2024 campaign also marked the team’s first year at the Division II level, so it would’ve been impossible to guess how things might go for the newcomers.

As it turned out, the conference’s coaches were almost right, as the Lakers finished seventh in the eight-team conference. Only winless Northern Michigan was lower in the standings.

Roosevelt did enter the season with some momentum after a 6-4 record in 2023 and a run at the Mid-State Football Association Midwest league title while wrapping up its time at the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics level, but the leap turned out to be a big one.

The Lakers opened the 2024 season with five consecutive losses, while a 16-10 win over Northern Michigan the following week is what kept Roosevelt out of the conference cellar.

The season ended with a hold-your-own 34-21 loss to playoff-bound Grand Valley State, so that’s definitely a nice thing to build on for 2025.

Plus, the Roosevelt Lakers have a lot to be proud of, considering the team didn’t even exist before 2020. 

That’s right, the Lakers previously played as the Robert Morris University Eagles, and the two Chicago-area schools merged in 2020. 

From the merger through 2023, the squad did not have a losing season, while winning eight games in 2021, posting a 7-3 mark with a more traditional schedule in 2022, and then going 6-4 in their final NAIA season.

The Lakers’ second year in the GLIAC will come under new leadership, as William McKeon, previously the team’s defensive coordinator and defensive back coach, has been elevated to head coach. Shortly after his appointment, he unveiled his new-look coaching staff.

Now, it’s time to perform in one of the toughest conferences in college football.
