Kevin Bracken joined the Big Green staff before the spring of 2025 as secondary coach, coming to Dartmouth from Endicott College where he served as defensive coordinator and defensive backs coach. "My family and I are very grateful for the opportunity of joining the Dartmouth Football Program and community," said Bracken. "I am excited to not only work at one of the best academic institutions in the world, but also with some of the best student-athletes across the planet. I would like to thank Coach Dobes, Coach McCorkle and [Haldeman Family Director of Athletics and Recreation] Mike Harrity for this opportunity. I look forward to being a part of the journey in pursuit of future Ivy League Championships." At Endicott, Bracken helped lead a defense that was among the national leaders in a number of categories: scoring defense (third), defensive pass efficiency (fourth), passing yards (fourth), red zone defense (seventh) and total defense yards per play (11th). The Gulls also finished first in rushing defense. After the season, four members of the defense were named to All-Region teams, one member was a D2/D3 Writers Selection, one member was named the CNE Defensive Player of the Year and nine were All-Conference selections. Bracken was named the 2024 Hansen Ratings All-Region I Defensive Coordinator of the Year. "We're excited about welcoming Kevin Bracken and his family to Dartmouth football," said McCorkle. "He's knowledgeable, brings energy that connects well with our staff
