The Stetson Hatters have announced their 2025 football schedule, which features newly added contests at home against Warner and Harvard.
“We’re excited about the opportunity we have in 2025,” said Stetson head coach Mike Jasper. “There’s a lot of anticipation already, and we feel like we are making great strides as we build this program. The opponents we face are all solid teams, and we will need to be ready each week. I’m really happy to be able to play in front of our family and fans at Spec Martin often, as we work to establish a winning culture and tradition.”
Stetson will open the 2025 season playing all of its non-conference games on the front half of its schedule, beginning with a pair of home games at Spec Martin Stadium in DeLand, Fla. Stetson will host the Webber International Warriors on Saturday, Aug. 30, followed by the Warner Royals on Saturday, Sept. 6.
The Hatters then travel to face the Chattanooga Mocs on Sept. 13 before wrapping up their non-league slate back in DeLand against the Harvard Crimson on Sept. 20.
Stetson opens Pioneer Football League (PFL) action on the road against Dayton on Sept. 27. Other PFL road opponents include Presbyterian on Oct. 18, Marist on Nov. 8, and Valparaiso on Nov. 15.
PFL opponents slated to visit Spec Martin Stadium this fall include Davidson on Oct. 4, Morehead State on Oct. 11, St. Thomas on Oct. 25, and San Diego on Nov. 22.

Stetson is entering its first season under head coach Michael Jasper, who previously led Bethel University to a 44-20 overall record in six seasons. The Hatters finished the 2024 season 0-7 in conference play, which placed them last in the PFL standings.
Harvard now only needs 1 game to complete their non-conference schedule. I predict it will be a 10/18 matchup against Merrimack.
Makes way too much sense, and would be a nice rematch of the 2022 comeback OT thriller which happened to be the first time the two have played each other.
With the Ivy League now joining the FCS playoffs, do we think they will add an 11th game to their schedules? I would think that if they want to get at-large berths in the future, the committee will require that.
Would love to see a Pioneer-Ivy Challenge, but my guess—the Ivy League too snobby for that. That said, PFL and Ivy League schools do play each other.
You would think they would add a game, but there isn’t a minimum requirement that I’m aware of.
John I would like to see Pioneer-Ivy League Challenge for Example Princeton-St. Thomas or Valparaiso-Cornell.
You’re right KK….no requirement, but if one team is 9-2, and the Ivy team is 8-2……
