2009 UC SAN DIEGO MEN’S SOCCER4

Jon Pascale enters his second season as the head coach of the UC San Diego men’s soccer team in 2009. Pascale, a former Stanford assistant coach, is the seventh head coach in the 34-year history of men’s soccer at the school.

In his first year at the helm in 2008, Pascale led the Tritons to a 10-6-2 over-all record, the squad’s best finish since 2005. UCSD men’s soccer ran off five consecutive wins to start last season and finished the campaign with a 6-6-2 record in the CCAA, good for fourth place in the South Division. The Tritons return 18 of the 23 letterwinners, including nine starters, as they aim to build on their 2008 success.

Pascale joined the UCSD family in 2008 after stints with three Universities that also place an emphasis on academic and athletic success. He spent the 2006 and 2007 seasons as an assistant coach at Stanford University where

he helped put together the 10th-ranked Division I recruiting class in the na-tion during 2007.

That position was preceded by five years at Georgetown University where he was the associate head coach for the Hoyas. Prior to his time in the D.C. area, Pascale was an assistant coach at the University of Pennsylvania for three seasons.

“I am extremely excited to join UC San Diego’s athletic department, and the men’s soccer family,” Pascale said. “I am honored to be selected as the one who follows Coach Armstrong, who has been an ambassador for soccer in this country and has built an excellent program with a storied history. From what I have been able to gather, the current student-athletes in this program are an eager bunch that are ready to get the Tritons back on top of college soccer.”

A former college player at American University, Pascale also has head coaching experience at various levels, including the New Jersey Olympic Development Program, the Bowie Lightning Soccer Club (Bowie, Md.), the Voorhees Soccer Club (Voorhees, N.J.), the Palo Alto Soccer Club and the Stanford University Men’s Club Team.

He is a 1998 graduate of American University, earning a Bachelor of Arts and Science in Elementary Education during his four years on the Washington D.C. campus.

COACHSecond Year

Eric Bucchere begins his second season as assistant coach for the UCSD men’s soccer team in 2009. Bucchere assists head coach Jon Pascale with all aspects of the program, including on-field coaching, recruiting, travel and off-season training programs.

Prior to his time as a UCSD assistant, Bucchere spent two seasons as head assistant coach at his alma mater, University of California Santa Cruz. During his first year, 2006, Bucchere helped the Division III Slugs to a 21-2 record, a birth into the round of 16 in the NCAA Tournament and a top-10 ranking in the NSCAA National Poll. In 2007, UCSC had a 15-5 mark and made their fifth consecutive birth into the NCAA Tournament.

While an assistant coach at Santa Cruz, Bucchere also served as the head coach for the SCC Breakers Soccer Club and the Harbor High School Girl’s Soccer Program.

As a player, Bucchere was a four-year letterwinner for the Slugs. The team qualified for the NCAA Tournament in three of his four years, including a Final Four appearance in 2004.

Ryan Hernandez begins his second season as assistant coach for the UCSD men’s soccer team in 2009. Hernandez assists head coach Jon Pas-cale with on-field coaching, recruiting, summer camps and off-season training programs.

Before coming to UCSD, Hernandez spent the 2007 season as an assistant coach at Orange Coast College. The Pirates finished with an 8-8-6 record, narrowly missing the Orange Empire Conference postseason. Prior to joining the staff at OCC, Hernandez spent seven years as a coach at Newport Harbor High School.

As a player, Hernandez was a three-year varsity starter for Newport Harbor High School and captained the squad in 1999 to a successful season. His ca-reer at OCC was cut short after one year due to a recurring back injury.

After getting his associate’s degree from Orange Coast College in 2004, Her-nandez earned a B.A. in Communications from Cal State Fullerton in 2007.

Prior to joining UCSD’s coaching staff, LaPorte spent a year at La Costa Canyon High School as the boy’s freshman head coach and varsity assis-tant coach. Currently he is the goalkeeper coach for the San Diego Surf and away from the soccer field, works as a Business Development and Office Manager for the Julian Veterinarian Hospital in Poway.

During his collegiate career, LaPorte starred at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tenn., as the squad’s starting goalkeeper and captain.

UC SAN DIEGO INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS

Earl W. Edwards - Director of AthleticsEarl Edwards accepted the position of Director of Athletics at UC San Diego in March 2000. Since his arrival, the UC San Diego athletics department has been nationally recognized for its academic and athletic achievements on numerous occasions. Under his guidance, the 23-sport program has made a very successful transition from the NCAA Division III ranks to Division II. In fact, UC San Diego has surpassed all expectations at the D-II level, capturing women’s soccer national championships in both 2000 and 2001.

Since moving to Division II in 2000, UC San Diego has been ranked among the top six programs in the country on seven different occasions. In two of those finishes, UCSD was the national runner up. UC San Diego also won three straight California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) Commissioners Cup titles in 2005-06, 2006-07, and 2007-08, an award that recognizes the best overall athletics program in the conference. In 2008, UC San Diego was ranked No. 1 in Division II and No. 20 overall in the National Collegiate Scouting Association (NCSA) Collegiate Power Rankings, which comprehensively measures student-athlete graduation rates, academic strength and athletic prowess.

Edwards has served on many regional and national committees and organizations. Currently, he serves on the Executive Council for the CCAA and he served on the Executive Committee of the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) from 2003-07. Edwards was the president of the National Association of Athletic Development Directors (NAADD) and has severed on numerous other NCAA committees, including the Division II Management Council, the Division II Championships and Minority Opportunities and Interest, the Walter Byers Scholarship and Committee for Women’s Athletics. He has published several articles in Athletic Management and was featured on the cover of the June 2007 issue. In 2007 he was selected Athletic Director of the Year for the West Region by the NACDA.

A 1972 graduate of East Stroudsburg University, Edwards earned a bachelor’s degree in Physical Education. He then went on to receive his masters in Sports Administration from the University of Massachusetts in 1973. In addition to working as athletics director at East Stroudsburg University and UC San Diego, he has athletics administration experience at the University of Massachusetts, UC Davis, the University of Michigan, and Drexel University.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH

The University of California, San Diego Department of Athletics is committed to actively participating in the community through a variety of outreach events and services. Student-athletes from 23 sports participate in a wide range of service and outreach programs in and around the San Diego area.

In 2003-04 the Tritons began the “Team Up!” program. This program assists local elementary schools that do not have a physical education component in their current curriculum. UCSD student-athletes provide healthy physical activity and create an environment for elementary school students that foster positive thinking and team building. The program was run at the Del Mar Heights Elementary School in the morning hours prior to school starting and during the students’ lunch periods during the past two years.

Triton student-athletes make the holidays brighter for 12 families in the San Diego area on an annual basis, providing a plethora of gifts and holiday cheer. Triton teams paired up and each tandem purchased presents, food, and goodies to deliver to their adopted family before the holidays. Families were selected by the Neighborhood House Association which runs the Head Start programs throughout San Diego County. Student-athletes contacted the families to find out what special presents the children wanted, as well as what sort of clothing

or other needs could be met. Teams delivered the presents in person and spent time with the families, often playing games with the children. Families each received approximately $300-$500 worth of gifts, depending on the number of children. Presents ranged from a bike for one child to clothing and food for the parents.

In conjuction with the California Collegiate Athletic Association as the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, Triton student-athletes have gone to work to raise money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation in each of the last three years. The student-athletes held a bake sale during the Annual Sun God Festival on the UCSD campus. Each team brought baked goods for a sale in the evening prior to the festival’s main event. The goal at each CCAA member institution was to raise $1 per student-athlete. Triton student-athletes far exceeded this goal, raising over $1,000 for the Make-A-Wish Foundation in 2005.

Additionally, the Intercollegiate Athletics Department holds an annual Blood Drive to benefit the American Red Cross. All coaches, staff and out of season student-athletes participated in the blood drive, while those student-athletes who were in season recruited other students on campus to donate blood on their behalf.

Two integral parts of the UC San Diego athletic department are the Athletic Performance Program and the Sports Medicine Program, both of which provide a tremendous advantage to all 23 of the UCSD intercollegiate sports.

The Athletic Performance Program is geared toward teaching each student-athlete how to achieve the highest level of athletic development through enhancement of all components of strength and conditioning. Athlete workouts are monitored and planned out by Rob Mamula, UCSD’s Director of Athletic Performance who brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to Triton athletics. Mamula represents the only full-time strength and conditioning coach in the entire CCAA. The Tritons work out in the RIMAC weight room that is over 12,000 square feet in size with state of the art equipment. The UCSD Athlete Performance Program is truly designed with the student-athlete’s enhancement in mind. Very few programs at the Division II level have such expertise and first class facilities at the disposal of the student-athlete helping to further distinguish the Triton Athletic Department as one of the premier intercollegiate programs in the country.

The UC San Diego Sports Medicine Center is the hub for the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of athletic-related injuries suffered by Triton student-athletes. Under the supervision of head athletic trainer Kevin Messey MS, ATC, CSCS and his staff, UCSD athletes receive the highest quality medical care and access to an extensive network of physicians and other medical specialists.

The rest of the training room staff is comprised of two full-time ATCs and an average of 10 athletic training students (ATS). The UCSD athletic training room is a clinical site for San Diego State University’s accredited athletic training education program where some of the athletic training students fulfill their clinical experience. Additionally the UCSD Sports Medicine Center offers a wide variety of options for examination and rehabilitation.

From acupuncture to a group of six highly specialized sports medicine, family practitioners and orthopedic surgeons, the UCSD training room has a multitude of options at your disposal to get you healthy and back on the field of competition in no time.

SAN DIEGO - AMERICA’S FINEST CITY

The UCSD campus is located in La Jolla, Calif., just minutes north of America’s sixth largest city, San Diego.

Spanish for ‘the jewel’, La Jolla is one of San Diego’s first neighborhoods to be settled. The city of La Jolla has spectacular beaches and park areas that are popular for great diving, swimming, surfing, hiking, romantic sunset strolls, and family fun. La Jolla’s village area boasts a beautiful Mediterranean charm and a cool Southern Californian vibe, and rolls out the red carpet when it comes to it’s fine dining, theatre, cultural activities, boutique shopping, art galleries and fine lodging establishments. It is no wonder why La Jolla’s Prospect Street was dubbed ‘San Diego’s Rodeo Drive’.

Named “America’s Finest City” due to its hospitality, beauty and ideal climate, San Diego is located at the southern tip of California, just north of Mexico. The residents of San Diego county are so physically active that Sports Illustrated magazine once called it “Sportstown, U.S.A.” San Diego’s 70 miles of beaches are a haven for swimmers, surfers, divers, boaters and sunbathers.

The city of San Diego is a major commercial business center with more than 2.6 million residents and a varied economy based in agriculture, manufacturing, aerospace, technol-ogy, electronics, aircraft, ship-building, scientific research and tourism. The city is one of the larg-est biotech centers in the U.S.
