YANKTON, S.D. — Two months ago Mount Marty College (MMC) announced the addition of football to the school’s growing list of varsity athletic offerings. Wednesday, the College announced the hiring of the program’s inaugural head coach, Mike Woodley. Coach 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.
