Senger was the program's fifth participant and followed Jordan Hogan (2020-21), Don Shumpert (2019), Terry Allen (2017-18) and Levon Kirkland (2015-16).
Senger came to the Cardinals after working as an offensive quality control coordinator for two seasons (2020-21) at North Dakota State, including in 2021 when the Bison won the FCS National Championship. While at NDSU, Senger assisted with opponent breakdowns while helping to run quarterback meetings and overall quarterback development. He also worked with the Bison special teams units, assisted with the play calling process and contributed to recruiting.
Prior to coming to the Cardinals, Senger was the offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach at Central Washington where he was hired in February, 2022.
Senger served as the quarterbacks coach at Carroll University in Wisconsin in 2018 and worked as the running backs coach for Wisconsin-Whitewater in 2019. The Warhawks were the Division III national runner-up during Senger's one year at the school.
A former collegiate quarterback at the University of Wisconsin (2013-14), Senger played his final two seasons at Wisconsin-Oshkosh before beginning his coaching career at the school as the team's quarterbacks coach in 2017. He was a part of two conference championships at UW-Oshkosh as both a player and a coach and helped quarterback Brett Kasper win the 2017 Gagliardi Trophy as the top player in Division III in 2017.
While at Wisconsin, Senger was named the team's Offensive Scout Team Player of the Year in each of his two seasons at the school.
