Evaluating Our Fall Sports

As we approach the CAA tournaments in our fall sports, we give a detailed breakdown of each sport, the status of the team and my thoughts on the coaching situation.

Volleyball:
2009 Record - Currently sitting at 16-11 overall. 3-8 in CAA play.

Seniors on Roster: None

Coaching Situation: In his 5th year, Coach Webster has struggled to get out of the CAA cellar.

Moving forward: With only 2 matches in the regular season, Coach Webster's group in stuck in a 5 match losing streak. Not good considering this team was 13-3 going into October. Yes, this team won a total of 3 matches last season but 2 out of those 3 wins were in CAA play.

Men's Soccer:

2009 Record - Season Complete. 4-10-1. 2-9 in CAA play.

Seniors on Roster: 3 - F Stephan Minyono, MF/F Brett Cummins, MF Darryl Evans

Coaching Situation: 10 years for Coach Daser. 4 wins in 2009. 6 wins in 2008. 4 wins in 2007. 5 total CAA wins in 5 years.

Moving forward: Not really getting better. I do like the fact that he is getting his former players back in the mix but it former players don't help recruit better players or get you better in the conference. I'll be interested to see what the off season brings.

Women's Soccer:

2009 Record - Season Complete. 7-6-6. 1-5-5 in CAA play.

Seniors on Roster: 4 - D Marshett Clarke, D/MF Caitlin Smith, D Virginia Wood and D Kari Quinn

Coaching Situation: 10 years. 90 wins. 13 all-conference players and seven all-freshman honorees, while 58 of his student-athletes have been recognized with academic all-conference accolades.

Moving forward: Next steps for Coach Dom are to win the CAA. That's an obvious but extremely difficult goal considering they win 1 match this season.
