Milwaukee, WI- The Mount Mary University Athletic Department has announced that Peter Knebel has resigned as Head Soccer Coach.  Knebel steps down from the role due to health reasons.

Director of Athletics Natalie Balleto had this to say regarding the move, "On behalf of Mount Mary University and Blue Angel Athletics we extend our deepest gratitude to Coach Peter for his love and dedication to the sport of soccer over a long decorated career and the work he put into this season for MMU Soccer. His departure after 1 season was certainly not in the plan for Coach Peter or our department. Unfortunately, his health issues have become increasingly difficult to manage and we support him in his decision to step away from MMU in order to focus on getting better. We wish Coach Peter well and continue to send many prayers to him and his family during his road to recovery."

A national search for Mount Mary University's next Head Soccer Coach will begin immediately.
