SEASON OVERVIEW
 
The Immaculata women's flag football team helped make history once again, as they competed in the first full season of the flag football for an NCAA conference. The Atlantic East Conference continued to be the pioneer for women's collegiate flag football hosting a full season in 2025.
 
Immaculata went 6-8 overall, and were 6-6 in Atlantic East Conference regular season play. Immaculata got off to a slow start falling in their first three games of the season. In their home opening tri-match at Draper Walsh Stadium on Friday, March 14^th, the Mighty Macs bounced back from a defeat to eventual conference champion Marymount, to earn their first regular season win, defeating Eastern University 20-7 for their first AEC win. After falling, in their next two games, Immaculata was sitting at 1-5 in conference play.

Immaculata defeated Neumann on March 26^th on the road and then came home to defeat Penn State Schuylkill 20-6, Neumann 33-0, and Holy Family 28-14 to improve to 5-5 in AEC play. Immaculata earned a split in their final regular season tri-match falling to Eastern 19-0, before defeating Holy Family 33-15 to finish the regular season 6-6 in AEC play and earned the fourth and final spot in the Atlantic East Conference Tournament. Immaculata fell to the eventual AEC Champion Marymount in the Tournament Semifinals.
