The Crusaders have a long history at Fenway Park, having played 21 football games at the ballpark between 1916 and 1956. Most recently, the Holy Cross women's hockey team competed at Fenway Park as part of the 2023 Frozen Fenway event. The game will mark the 37th all-time meeting between the Patriot League opponents.
"What an exciting opportunity for our student-athletes, staff and the entire Crusader community to experience Holy Cross football at the most iconic venue in all of sports. We are excited to work with Fenway Park Events to welcome families, fans and friends from both schools to create a once-in-a-lifetime memory," said Kit Hughes, Holy Cross Vice President for Intercollegiate Athletics. "Fenway Park is synonymous with rich history and tradition, home to one of the best teams and some of the best moments in professional sports history, and we are thrilled for the chance for our student-athletes to play in such a unique environment."
"It is an incredible opportunity for our program to be able to play at historic Fenway Park," said Holy Cross football head coach Dan Curran. "Our student-athletes, alumni, and the entire Holy Cross community are so excited to take on Georgetown University in what should be an amazing environment."
