The Trinity Bantams football team of Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut competes in the New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC), a league of small liberal arts colleges.
The Bantams held the nation's longest home winning streak through 13 seasons (1998–2011) and second-longest in consecutive wins (53) through the 2014 season.[1]
Trinity has the third-highest number of victories of any NCAA Division III football program in New England and the second-best all-time winning percentage among NESCAC schools. The Bantams' recent history includes only one losing season in the past 25 years. The Trinity football team is coached by Jeff Devanney (2005–present). Devanney follows in the footsteps of Chuck Priore, Dan Jessee, and Don Miller. Jessee compiled a 150–76–7 record from 1933 to 1966, and Miller followed with a 174–77–5 mark over the next 32 seasons. Miller retired after the 1998 season as the most successful coach in Trinity football history and the all-time most successful Division III coach in New England history.
