The Laker Athletic Alliance was founded by Ian Wild (class of 2012), alongside former teammates from the 2010 PSAC Championship team. The experience of winning a championship at the Hurst has left a lasting impact on many members of the 2010 team who are striving to give back and provide a similar experience to the current and future players at the school.
With the recent evolution of the college football landscape and Mercyhurst’s transition to Division 1, the Laker Athletic Alliance was formed to provide the opportunity to compete for an NEC and NCAA – FCS championship. The LAA believes that as a TEAM, together everyone achieves more.
The revenue generated from LAA memberships, corporate partnerships, and individual contributions will be used to collectively provide Name, Image, and Likeness opportunities for the current and future players of the Mercyhurst University Football program.
With over 40 years of program history, we encourage any and all who are interested in supporting the football team to participate. Don’t hesitate to reach out to Ian or the other LAA partners for more information on how you can support.
