James PriceHead CoachFifth SeasonCareer Record: 110-159-25 Record at UNI: 22-42-10

University of Northern Iowa head women’s soccer coach James Price is beginning his fifth season at the helm of the Panther women’s soccer program.

Price has guided the Panthers to a winning improvement in each of his four years in the Missouri Valley Conference - capped by a 3-2-2 mark in MVC play in 2012. The Panthers hosted their first-ever MVC Tournament game in 2012.

During the 2011 campaign, Price earned his 100th career victory with a 1-0 win over Evansville. The win came during a five-game win streak, the longest in program history. The Panthers also earned a trip to the MVC Tournament for the fifth time in school history; the first under Price. UNI was tabbed with the 6th-seed and traveled to face the No. 3-seeded Creighton Bluejays in Omaha, Neb. The Panthers earned the victory over Creighton on penalty kicks, 5-3, after 110 minutes of scoreless soccer. UNI was defeated 2-1 in the semifinals of the MVC tournament in overtime by the hosts and no. 2-seeded Missouri State Bears.

Price was named the women’s soccer coach at UNI by Director of Athletics Troy Dannen on Dec. 22, 2008. After the 2010 campaign, Price received a contract extension making him the head coach of the Panthers through the 2015 season.

Before joining the Panthers, Price spent 11 years as the head coach at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Va. After resigning from Liberty in 2008, Price spent a season as the technical director for the Soccer Organization of Charlottesville Albemarle.

“I am pleased with the foundation that James has laid for the UNI women’s soccer program in his first two years,” Dannen said. “His leadership is enabling our program to position itself for competitive success, and he has proven to be an outstanding leader for the young women in our program.”

During his tenure with the Flames, Price led the team to three Big South Conference Tournament titles, and two Big South Conference regular-season crowns, in addition to three NCAA Tournament appearances. Price guided 39 all-conference athletes, with 20 of them earning first team all-conference nods. Two players were named Big South Players of the Year, along with three Big South Tournament MVP awards. Price was named Big South Coach of the Year in 1999, with the Flames finishing runner-up at the Big South Tournament.

“I would like to thank Troy for this wonderful opportunity,” Price said. “I was impressed with the athletic

administration’s commitment to the women’s soccer team, and by the honesty and eagerness of the returning players. There is already a solid foundation, and I look forward to working hard with the players and staff to build a soccer program that UNI can be proud of. I also plan to reach out to the Cedar Valley soccer community, and form strong relationships throughout the area.”

Price was a member of the NCAA Women’s Soccer National Committee from 2002-2005. In addition, Price served as the NCAA Mid-Atlantic Regional Committee Chair from 2003-2005.

Along with guiding his athletes to success on the field, Price also placed a strong emphasis on academics. Three of his athletes were named Big South Scholar Athlete of the year, along with two Academic All-America selections and two Academic All- Region and Academic All-District selections. The Flames women’s soccer team had the highest GPA at Liberty, with a spring 2008 GPA of 3.26.

Prior to his time at Liberty, Price served as an assistant coach at Randolph Macon Women’s College from 1996-1997 and also as the director of coaching for the Lynchburg United Soccer Travel Club.

Price played collegiate soccer for the Flames from 1993-1996 and later played with the USISL pro league team Roanoke Wrath from 1996-2000. In his native country of England, Price played at the semi-pro level with the Chessington United from 1991-1993.

Price earned his bachelor’s degree in sport management from Liberty in 1996. Price also holds an associate degree in exercise science from Farnborough College of Technology in England.

During the second half South Dakota State challenged the Pan-thers, recording six of their 10 total shots in the half. However, 90 minutes proved to not be enough time. After a scoreless first overtime, the Jackrabbits were able to put back a deflection after a corner kick. Diana Potterveld shot the deflected cross past diving Panther goalkeeper Nicole Postel for the victory.

SDSU attempted 12 corner kicks and totalled 10 shots. Jackrabbit goalkeeper Nicole Inskeep recorded the victory while recording only one save due to the Panthers unlucky knack for hitting the goal posts early in the match.
