We’re excited about the 2025 season and the progress our team continues to make! For our first win of the year, the Bearcats earned a decisive 34–7 victory over Washburn, a strong statement of the growth and potential of this program. Our players have worked tirelessly to elevate Northwest Football, and wins like this show we’re moving in the right direction.
Northwest Football is built on tradition, discipline, and the pride of Bearcat Nation. While we’re proud of our progress, we know there’s still more to accomplish. Our goal remains the same — to compete at a championship level and represent the toughness, passion, and pride of Northwest Missouri State.
At the heart of our program is the standard we live by every day: R.I.S.E. — Respect, Integrity, Selfless, Evolution. These values guide how we prepare, how we compete, and how we represent Bearcat Nation on and off the field.
We’re also incredibly proud of how our student-athletes perform in the classroom. Their commitment to excellence carries over from the field to their academics, and that balance is what makes this program so special.
Your support on Bleed Green Athletic Day of Giving makes a lasting impact. From gear and uniforms to travel and player resources, your generosity ensures our student-athletes have the tools they need to succeed. Just as important, your energy in the stands and throughout the community fuels this program every single day.
Together, we’re building something special. With your continued support — on the field, in the classroom, and in the community — Northwest Football will continue to R.I.S.E. to new heights. The future is bright, and we’re grateful to have Bearcat Nation alongside us on this journey.
