Upper Cape fielded a varsity team in 2011 and joined the Mayflower League. In Upper Cape Tech's first varsity season, the team finished with a 2–8 record. Upper Cape also fielded a JV and Freshman football team that fall.
In 2012, in just the football team's second varsity season, the Rams finished the regular season with a 9–1 record and won the Mayflower Small League Championship. They clinched a berth in the Massachusetts Division 5 State Championship game against Dorchester, who came into the game undefeated at 10–0. Led by their All-State running back Jon Dumont, the Rams beat Dorchester by a score of 22–8, winning their first state championship in football. The win was also Upper Cape's first state championship in any sport in the school's history. The Rams finished the season with a 10–1 record and were ranked 25th in the state.
