Mount Marty College has announced the hiring of the program’s inaugural head football coach.
Mike Woodley, currently the head coach at Grand View University in Des Moines, Iowa, has agreed to take on the head coaching position for the MMC Lancers effective August 1. He says the first step is getting out there……
Woodley is no stranger to developing programs as he started the Grand View football team eleven years ago.
During his tenure at GVU, he built one of the top programs in the NAIA and has accumulated a record of 85-32 while leading the Vikings to six playoff appearances, seven consecutive conference titles, and winning the 2013 NAIA National Football Championship with a record of 14-0 overall. He says it is possible to get off to a quick start….
That same year, Woodley was named the AFCA NAIA National Football Coach of the Year. He was voted the MSFA Midwest Coach of the Year in 2009, 2011, 2013, and 2014 and the Heart of America Conference Coach of the Year in 2015 and 2017.
He says he is looking forward to the challenge……
