Friends University

Tim Prescott is in his first season as the women's wrestling head coach at Friends University after a two-year tenure as assistant coach for both wrestling programs. 

Since becoming an assistant coach two years ago in the wrestling program's debut season on campus, Prescott's imprint has been clear and impactful.

Everything culminated this season with a pair of Falcons (Bailee Nelson, Gianna Moreno) becoming the program's first-ever national qualifiers at the NAIA Women's Wrestling National Championship. 

As a team, the Falcons placed 26th nationally, tops among all KCAC schools.

Prior to arriving at Friends, Prescott was the head coach for one season at Central Christian College following a one-year stint as an assistant coach at Cornell College and a two-year appointment as a graduate assistant coach at Northern State University.

Prescott was also a standout collegiate wrestler, capturing the 2015 NCAA Division II national championship at St. Cloud State University in the 125-pound division while being named the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference Wrestler of the Year. Overall, Prescott contributed to a pair of NCAA D-II team national championships for SCSU.

He earned his Masters of Sport Performance from Northern State in 2019 and his Bachelor of Liberal Studies degree from St. Cloud State in 2017.
