Homer "Buzz" Ostrom Stadium

A member of the highly-competitive Valley Conference, Sierra College football is recognized as an elite national football program. The Wolverines have appeared in ten bowl games, and won 37 straight games from 2002-2005. More than 80 players have moved on to play at four-year schools the last few years.

There’s nothing like a Sierra College football game on a crisp fall Saturday afternoon. Few community college game environments can equal the noise and the color of a sold-out Homer “Buzz” Ostrom Stadium on game day!

Ben Noonan, Citrus College offensive coordinator and former Alabama St., Baylor University and West Texas A&M assistant coach, is the new Sierra College head football coach, Sierra athletic director Peg Grady announced today.
