Curt Fitzpatrick was named SUNY Cortland’s Head Coach in February 2020. Due to COVID-19, the Red Dragons didn't compete that fall, but in his first season on the field in 2021, Coach Fitzpatrick led Cortland to one of the best seasons in school history. Cortland finished 11-1 to tie a school record for wins in a season. That mark included the Red Dragons' first 10-0 season since 1988, capped by a win over Ithaca in the annual Cortaca Jug game. Coach Fitzpatrick followed that campaign up by leading the Dragons to a 9-2 season in 2022 and a bid to the NCAA playoffs.

Before Cortland, Coach Fitzpatrick was at the helm of SUNY Morrisville. During his 7-year tenure, he guided SUNY Morrisville to four winning seasons, one conference championship, and three postseason ECAC bowl appearances.

Hear from Coach Fitzpatrick as he details what culture he wants to establish, his offensive philosophy, and what he’s looking forward to the most.
