Thank you, Poughkeepsie!
Dear Stockade Fans —
Although 2024 did not go the way any of us expected, we are so grateful for the never-ending support from the Dutch Guard, our dedicated volunteers, Stockade FC fans across the Hudson Valley and beyond, and everyone who supported us this year.
A major thank you to the Marist College community for embracing us these last two seasons. Special thank you to Athletic Director Tim Murray, Associate AD Darren McCormack and all the facility, security and food services teams who helped make these last two years a great success. Most importantly, a massive thank you to Marist Men’s Soccer Coach Matt Viggiano for all of his assistance and guidance in helping make this transition possible.
Lastly, thank you to the people of Dutchess County who have embraced us and welcomed us with open arms. We hope that we have created lifelong Stockade fans who will make the return to Dietz Stadium in Kingston with us. We promise it will be worth the trip!
Over the last two years at Tenney Stadium, we have shared countless moments together. We shared an incredible 2023 season filled with high moments, encapsulated by hosting a conference championship game under the Tenney lights. We shared a difficult 2024 filled with low moments, but your support was unwavering.
As we look to the future and prepare for our return to a fully renovated Dietz Stadium in 2025, we can’t wait to share more incredible moments with you all!
Our gratitude is endless. Thank you, Poughkeepsie!
This is OUR Valley!
Black & Orange ‘Til I Die,
Dan Hoffay, Technical Director
