Bruce Weber will receive Wartburg’s Graven Award

[lotthall]

The annual Graven Award, now in its 27th year, is presented to a person “whose life is nurtured and guided by a strong sense of Christian calling and who is making a significant contribution to community, church and society.” It is named for the late Judge Henry N. and Helen Graven, natives of Greene, whose lives reflected those same commitments.

Weber is one of the winningest coaches in Division I basketball, accumulating 392 career wins and 10 NCAA Tournament appearances. He also earned multiple Coach of the Year awards, including the 2013 Big 12 Coach of the Year. Among his national accolades are the Naismith Award, The Associated Press Coach of the Year, Adolph F. Rupp Cup and the U.S. Basketball Writers Association’s Henry Iba Award.

"Coach Bruce Weber has exhibited a lifelong commitment to live out his calling as a person of faith through his vocations as coach, community servant and mentor to students, as well as his commitment to live a life of service through his church commitments,” said the Rev. Ramona Bouzard, the Herbert and Cora Moehlmann Chaplaincy Endowed Chair. “He is a transparent leader who is guided by integrity, hard work and a drive to bring out the best in others."
