Frenship ISD is proud to announce Michael Von Ende-Becker as the Head Boys Soccer Coach for Frenship Memorial High School. With seven years of experience in coaching and education, Coach Von Ende-Becker brings a strong background in player development, leadership, and program building to this exciting new role.
A Lubbock native, Coach Von Ende-Becker played four years of soccer at Lubbock High School before continuing his athletic and academic journey at McMurry University in Abilene.
