DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- Daytona Beach Thunder owners Kevin and Zack McDonald have named Antone Smothers as Director of Sales and Marketing.
Smothers comes to the Thunder from Atlanta, where he successfully ran businesses and marketing ventures. His duties for the Thunder will include enhancing the team's sales effort as well as promotions for its inaugural season in the American Indoor Football League.
"This is a very intriguing and exciting opportunity,'' Smothers said. "I'm excited about working for Kevin and Zack and the integrity they bring to the business side of this football team."
