Bunton graduated in 2008 from Bethel with a B.S. in Psychology and Sociology.  Bunton cheered for three years on the cheerleading team while attending Bethel, then took the position as assistant coach for the program in 2006 while finishing her degree.

"I am proud to say I've been a part of such a great cheerleading program at Bethel, both as a cheerleader and a coach," says Bunton.  "I love the opportunity I'm given as a coach at Bethel College to not solely coach, but invest in and minister to the lives of college students.  I've seen many of my cheerleaders graduate and move into coaching positions, but my greatest joy comes from seeing them grow closer to the Lord and impact others for His Kingdom."

Coach Bunton and her husband, Ronnie, live in South Bend with their daughter, Emery, who turned one in September.
