The Pioneers football team represents Grinnell College. Grinnell's football program started in 1889, when the Pioneers beat the University of Iowa 24-0. The game was held on November 16, 1889 in Grinnell and was the first game of intercollegiate football west of the Mississippi River, and therefore, Iowa. A stone marker still stands in Grinnell Field marking the event. The team's first head coach was Theron Lyman.
