This week we are staying in the PAC with 31 year legend Geno DeMarco Geneva College Head Football Coach!
The 1979 New Brighton graduate, Coach DeMarco first attended Baldwin Wallace, before returning home to Geneva.
While being a two sport athlete, and the first Academic All-American, coach earned 3 degrees. In 1985 he traveled to Georgia Tech, where he was a GA under Bill Curry.
The problem with attempting to earn his Master degree while starting his coaching career, GT did not have a masters program for Geno at the time, so it was time to come back north.
The opportunity presented itself in Morgantown WV under the guidance of Hall of Famer & Mountaineer legend Don Nehlen coaching for two years coaching and earning his Masters.
When the time came coach moved on to pharmaceutical business, but the passion to coach never went away so much so that he returned home, joining Geneva Pillar Gene Sullivan as a volunteer for 5 seasons.
1992 coach Sullivan was ready to retire and Geneva had to look no farther, Coach DeMarco would begin the 31 year and counting head coaching career at Geneva College.
From NAIA, to D3 PAC member, Coach DeMarco who is on the second head coach Geneva has had since 1976. While being the head coach of a successful D3 Program is just part of what coach does at Geneva, he also is a professor in the Business Department.
He has an overall record of 154-141. This past year the National Christian College Athletic Association (NCCAA) named DeMarco to its Hall of Fame for the impact he has had in the NCCAA over his 30+ years as Geneva's head coach.
“We are all just a series of experiences, stories, and memories. And each one has shaped us into the people we are today… there’s a story there, and we want to hear it.”
