Carthage assistant lands CUW post Greg Etter, defensive coordinator at Carthage for the past six seasons, has been named the new head football coach at Concordia (Wis.) replacing longtime Falcon mentor Jeff Gabrielsen who announced his retirement 10 days ago. "I am thrilled to be adding someone with Greg Etter's experience, character, and leadership ability to the Falcon coaching staff," said Concordia athletic director Rob Barnhill. "I have known Greg since the early 90's and have always respected what he has done as a football coach. The Falcon football program has enjoyed tremendous success and I know that this decision will ensure the continuation of that standard and upward trend." Etter graduated from Mankato State in 1987 with a BA in physical education, and earned his master's in educational administration at Wisconsin in 1991. He served as an assistant coach at South Dakota State from 1991 to 2002 and was that team's defensive coordinator from 1997 to 2002. "We are very excited to welcome Greg as the new leader for Falcon football," said Concordia president Patrick Ferry. "He is an impressive young man, and we are confident that he will build on and expand the tradition of success and excellence that has been established at Concordia. Coach Etter will be a great mentor and model for our student athletes." |
