ST. CHARLES, MO - The Missouri Monsters are expecting a championship caliber team for our 2014 season! In an effort to ensure this success, we have diligently interviewed candidates for our Head Coach position and are excited to announce that we have selected Pat Pimmel to lead us to success this 2014 season.

With 25+ years of coaching experience, Pimmel brings a wide range of technical knowledge and professional maturity to the team.

"I am excited to have Pat as part of the Monsters Family. After exhaustively interviewing a significant amount of candidates, the ownership truly feels that Pat holds the key competencies that we are looking for in a Head Coach, both on and off the field. I look forward to working with him on building the Monsters into a fierce contender for the 2014 season!" Said Monsters Owner Andrew Haines.

I have been coaching out of the state for over 3 years and have seen so many talented players from St. Louis picked up by out of state teams. I look forward to seeing St. Louis talent and picking up as many local players as I can, I know they can play and win at this level. Additionally, I look forward to partnering with the ownership and bringing a championship home for St. Louis." Said Monsters Head Coach, Pat Pimmel.
