We recently started a new series called "Getting AQuainted With…" as a way for our fans to get to know our Aquinas head coaches on a few professional topics and through some more light-hearted questions.
Name: Adam Antor
Hometown: Grand Rapids, Michigan / St. Louis, Missouri

What is your favorite thing about being a head coach at Aquinas? Having the opportunity to work with one of the hardest-working groups in collegiate esports!
What is your top memory from your time at AQ? Our Rocket League team coming from behind in the NACE National Championship semi-finals to win a trip to the National Championship in Atlanta. After we reverse-swept our opponents, the team had celebratory sparking grape juice in the parking lot to celebrate.
Your favorite:
