Fontbonne University adds wrestling teams
T. LOUIS, Mo.—Fontbonne University Director of Athletics, Maria Buckel, is pleased to announce Amond Prater as the inaugural Head Men’s and Women’s Wrestling Coach.
“I’m excited to welcome Coach Amond Prater into a new role within our department in leading our inaugural wrestling programs,” said Buckel. “Coach Prater has an extensive wrestling background and is highly regarded in the wrestling community locally and nationally. Coach Prater brings many skills to our department outside of wrestling. Therefore, I look forward not only to his leadership in building our wrestling programs but the impact he has on our department.”
“It’s exciting because I feel Fontbonne is a hidden gem, especially in the wrestling community now as it’s a chance to get more high school students an opportunity to wrestle in college,” said Prater. “I’m definitely excited about the opportunity.”
