The Coe Kohawks football team represents Coe College in college football at the NCAA Division III level. The Kohawks are members of the American Rivers Conference (A-R-C), fielding its team in the A-R-C since 1997 when it was the Iowa Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (IIAC). The Kohawks play their home games at K. Raymond Clark Field in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.[1] The team's head coach is Tyler Staker, who took over the position for the 2016 season.[2]
Professor C. W. Perkins first proposed the "Kohawks" fight name during the 1922 season.[3] It would not go into effect until the 1928 season. The team had previously been called the Warriors and the Crimson.
Coe claims 26 conference titles, the most recent of which came in 2016.
