Coaching Staff
Shaun Pendleton Head Coach Second Season 330-61-13 (Career) 10-8-0 (Appalachian) Akron 1985
Appalachian State University hired Shaun Pendleton as the 10th men’s soccer head coach in school history on Feb. 20, 2008. In his first season Pendleton led Appalachian to an 10-8 record and a tie for second in the Southern Conference, ASU’s highest league finish since 2002. The Mountaineers earned a SoCon Tournament home game for the first time since 2004. Three Appalachian players earned first-team all-conference honors in 2008, the first time that has happened since the 1989 club had three first-teamers. In all, ASU had five players earn all-conference honors, the most since 1994. He also received the honor of coaching the 2009 North Carolina Olympic Development Program team (ODP). Pendleton coached the ‘92 Boys’ team to a thirdplace finish in the nation. The Sheffield, England native has compiled a 330-61-12 record in 20 seasons as a head coach, including two years at the University of Charleston (W. Va.) and 17 campaigns at Lynn University in Boca Raton, Fla. His .846 career winning percentage ranked tops all-time among NCAA Division II coaches. At Lynn, Pendleton compiled a 293-42-12 overall record and led the Fighting Knights to a pair of national championships — with a 22-0-2 record at the NAIA level in 1991, his first season at the helm, and at the NCAA D-II level in 2003, when Lynn capped an undefeated 22-0-1 season with a 2-1 victory over Chico State in the national title game. After Lynn joined the NCAA in 1996, Pendleton took the Knights to the postseason in 9-of-12 seasons and reached the national semifinals four times. Overall, he directed the Knights to postseason play in 14 of his 17 years at the helm, putting together a 38-12-1 record (.755). Under his tutelage, 46 LU players earned all-America status and, perhaps even more impressively, 23 garnered all-America Scholar recognition. As a player, Pendleton was a two-time all-America defender at the University of Akron in 1984 and ‘85. He also earned academic all-America plaudits in 1985 and earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in physical education from Akron that same

He was inducted into UA’s Athletics Hall of Fame in 2004. Following his collegiate playing career, Pendleton went on to play four seasons in the American Indoor Soccer Association with the Columbus Capitals and the Memphis Storm, where he set a league record by playing in 177-conscutive matches. “We’re excited to bring in someone of Coach Pendleton’s caliber to lead our men’s soccer program,” ASU director of athletics Charlie Cobb said at the time of Pendleton’s hiring. “He built a championship-level program at Lynn and we look forward to him doing the same here at Appalachian.” “It’s an honor to be the coach of a program with the winning tradition that Appalachian has,” Pendleton said. “I truly believe that the foundation is here to return the program to Southern Conference and national prominence. I look forward to getting to work to take the program to the next level.” Pendleton, 47, holds a USSF “A” license and a NSCAA advanced national diploma.
Shaun Pendleton led ASU to its highest SoCon finish in six years during his first season with the Mountaineers.

Matt Nelson enters his second season as an assistant coach at Appalachian State. In his first year, he coached freshman Collin Taylor to first team all-conference goalkeeper honors as well as earning allfreshman accolades. The ASU defense led the Southern Conference in least goals allowed (21 allowed and goals against at 1.17 per game). Before coming to Appalachian, Nelson played professionally for four teams and also brings five years of coaching experience to the Black and Gold. Nelson played collegiately for current ASU head coach Shaun Pendleton at Lynn University from 1997-2000. He was the 2000 men’s soccer Player of the Year and also selected as the Lynn Scholar Athlete of the Year. Nelson played professionally after his graduation for the Cape Cod Crusaders of the USL Second Division and was an all-league selection. In 2001, he played for Kilkenny City of the Irish Premier League before heading back to the USL, this time with the South Jersey Barons and then the Virginia Beach Mariners of the USL first division where he played until 2006 and was an all-star. Nelson also coached at Virginia Weslyan College helping them achieve a record of 54-7-6 and helping it win two Old Dominion Athletic Conference championships. After joining William and Mary’s women’s program for two seasons he helped them to a record of 23-5-13.
Tom Davies begins his second year as a volunteer assistant coach at ASU. Davies was a four year standout at Lynn University from 2001-2004 and was a member of the Knights 2003 national championship team. A native of Birmingham, England, Davies graduated with a bachelors degree in liberal arts.

2009 Season Outlook
After a successful first year at the helm, Appalachian State University men’s soccer coach Shaun Pendleton is looking to build on last season’s impressive 10-8 record and second place finish in the Southern Conference. The Mountaineers return eight starters from last year, including 4-of-5 members of the defense that led the league in goals against average. Veterans Kenny Orelaja and Steven Sassano return to anchor the defense, as well as sophomore Mark Bridges, who earned SoCon all-freshman honors last season. The fourth starting position on the back line is up for grabs between freshmen David Dodge, J.J. Elder, Lee Williams and Kojo Thompson. “Our defense had a fantastic spring and we brought in several quality defenders to give us added speed and depth, Pendleton said. “The defense should be the strongest part of the team.” The final wall in the defense looks to remain solid with the return of all-SoCon keeper Collin Taylor and backup Drake Branson. Taylor started all 17 games he played in ‘08, leading the SoCon in saves and finishing fourth with a 0.98 GAA. Branson appeared in two games, finishing the 2-1 win over UNC Greensboro and starting the SoCon playoff game against College of Charleston. “The cornerstone to any championship team starts at the back,” Pendleton said. “We have two goalkeepers and we are looking for both to step forward and make huge contributions.” Senior Arie Muniz returns as ASU’s top offensive threat after earning first-team all-SoCon honors last season. He scored four goals and tied for the conference lead with seven assists. Sean Dreybus earned all-freshman honors last season,leading ASU freshmen with seven points. Antonio Harley chipped in nine points (4G, 1A) and all four of his goals were game-winners, tying him for the SoCon lead. Freshmen Nate Latigue, Luis Calzadilla and Tyler Regan and sophomore Bruno Mbamala add depth offensively and

all look to see time on the field. “We’ll look for Arie to be the leader of a young forward line and to become one of the top players in the SoCon,” Pendleton said. “The recruits we brought in give of us size and depth that we didn’t previously have.” Sophomore Lee Rutter appeared in all 18 games and started eight of ASU’s last nine games a season ago. He registered a goal and an assist for three points on the year. Fellow sophomore Ryan Duffy played in 13 games and scored his first collegiate goal on his first and only shot of the season in the SoCon Tournament game against College of Charleston. With only two midfielders returning, the incoming batch of freshmen, J.T. Goodrum, Brennen Smith, Ethan Durland and Show Yoshida could get a majority of playing time at the position. Pendleton has brought in another strong recruiting class, bringing in 12 student-athletes from four different states and England. “We feel this class can produce several starters this year and give us added depth to upgrade our program significantly,” Pendleton said. “Many of the newcomers have strong soccer backgrounds and should contribute immediately.” Appalachian remains one of the youngest teams in the country, as 18-of-22 players will be either freshmen or sophomores. The Mountaineers get the season started against Emory and Henry in the regular-season opener. Appalachian hosts Radford on Friday, Sept. 4 before going on the road to face Liberty and compete in the UNC Wilmington and Charlotte tournaments. Following the tournaments, ASU returns home for a two-game homestand against Mercer before hosting Wofford in the SoCon opener. The Apps travel to defending regular-season SoCon champ Elon on Oct. 3 and return home to face perennial power Furman on Sunday, Oct. 11. After a three-game road trip, Appalachian finishes off its home schedule against NCAA Elite Eight participant from a year ago, UNC Greensboro, before hosting UNC Asheville in the home finale. ASU completes its regular season schedule at Georgia Southern. The top four teams in the conference will compete in the SoCon, with the winner receiving the conference’s automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.

The newly constructed facility features artificial field turf as well as a picturesque panoramic view of the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains.

There are also two other fields at the complex where the local high school team and HCSA teams play throughout the fall and spring. The stadium is now complete with bleachers available for 1,000 spectators and a state of the art press box.

Thompson Usyian earned the honor three time during that period (1977, 78, 80) and still remains the only SoCon player to be dubbed Player of the Year three times in his career.

The Southern Conference, which enters its 89th season of intercollegiate competition in 2009, has become known as one of the nation’s leaders in emphasizing the development of the student-athlete and defining the league’s role in helping to build lifelong leaders and role models. The Southern Conference has excelled as the premier conference in the Football Championship Subdivision since earning that classification in 1981. The Conference currently consists of 11 members in four states throughout the Southeast and sponsors 19 varsity sports and championships that produce participants for NCAA Division I Championships. The Southern Conference is the nation’s fifth-oldest NCAA Division I collegiate athletic association. Only the Big Ten (1896), the Missouri Valley (1907), the Pacific 10 (1915) and the Southwestern Athletic (1920) conferences are older in terms of origination. Throughout its history, the Southern Conference has been an innovator in college athletics. The Southern Conference was the first “super conference” with its charter membership including the likes of Alabama, Auburn, and North Carolina. The SoCon, as it has come to be known by headline writers throughout the country, is the league that gave birth to the three-point shot in college basketball and was the college home of such sporting greats as Arnold Palmer, Jerry West and Charlie “Choo Choo” Justice. Academic excellence has been a major part of the Southern Conference’s tradition. League athletes have been recognized countless times on CoSIDA Academic All-America and district teams. A total of 19 Rhodes-Scholarship winners have been selected from the conference. The Southern Conference office is located in the Beaumont Mill in Spartanburg, SC. A textile mill that was in operation from 1880 until 1999, the Beaumont Mill was renovated in 2004 and today offers the SoCon a first class meeting area as well as a spacious library for storage of the conference’s historical documents. Today, the league continues to thrive with a membership that spans five Southeastern states. Current league members are Appalachian State, College of Charleston, The Citadel, Davidson, Elon, Furman, Georgia Southern, UNC Greensboro, Chattanooga, Samford, Western Carolina and Wofford. The SoCon also sponsors two all-sports awards, the Commissioner's Cup for men's programs and the Germann Cup for women's teams. In 2008, Appalachian claimed its 28th Commissioner’s Cup since 1972 and has won the Germann Cup eight times in school history. Appalachian is the only SoCon program to win both cups in the same year, a feat it has accomplished seven times.

During his tenure, NC State increased football seasonticket sales by 87 percent and men’s basketball season-ticket sales by 121 percent. The combined ticket revenues accounted for an annual increase of over 86 percent for Wolfpack athletics, generating more than $6 million for the department. In addition, Cobb served as NC State’s administrator for baseball and women’s soccer, tournament manager for the 2004 NCAA men’s basketball first and second rounds at the RBC Center and the chair for the southeast region of the NCAA women’s soccer committee. Prior to returning to his alma mater in ‘98, Cobb spent six years in Atlanta, Ga., where he held positions with the Atlanta Sports Council, the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl and the Georgia Dome. As an assistant executive director for the Atlanta Sports Council and the Peach Bowl, he helped coordinate Atlanta’s bid for the 2002 NCAA men’s basketball Final Four and handled all game and event operations for the Peach Bowl. As sales manager for the Georgia Dome from 1994-97, Cobb helped procure events such as the Southeastern Conference football championship, the SEC and Atlantic Coast Conference men’s basketball tournaments, NCAA men’s basketball championship events, Georgia High School Association football playoffs, major concerts and other college and amateur sporting events. Cobb graduated with honors with a B.A. in business administration from NC State in 1990. A second-team all-ACC honoree at center as a senior, Cobb was an academic all-ACC selection and collected the prestigious Jim Tatum Award, presented to the ACC football senior with the highest grade point average, and the Bob Warren Memorial Award, given to the Wolfpack football player that displays the highest integrity and sportsmanship. After receiving post-graduate scholarships from both the ACC and NFL Charities, Cobb earned a master’s degree in sports administration from Ohio University in 1992. Cobb is married to the former Lindsay Brecher, who was an all-ACC goalkeeper for NCSU women’s soccer from 1988-90. They have an 11-year-old son, Harrison, and a eight-year-old daughter, Branan.

Additionally, Cobb has spearheaded Appalachian’s $50 million facilities enhance-ment campaign, which will come to fruition this fall with the completion of the cen-terpiece of the campaign, the 120,000-square-foot Kidd Brewer Stadium Complex. The seven-story complex, located behind KBS’s west stands, includes new football offices and locker room, a strength and conditioning center, training facilities, academic study space and computer lab for all ASU student-athletes, as well as premium seating in the form of 600 club-level seats and 18 suites The facilities enhancements has also included other significant renovations to The Rock.

FROM THE DESK OF THE CHANCELLOR ...
There’s a fresh, new excitement buzzing within Kidd Brewer Stadium – also known as “The Rock,” a fitting term for the solid preparation our student-athletes achieve during their time at Appalachian State University. The Kidd Brewer Stadium Complex behind the west-side stands exemplifies Appalachian’s progress in enhancing its athletics facilities. All 20 varsity sports benefit from the facility’s new locker rooms, study areas, and strength and conditioning rooms. There are also new concessions and restroom areas for our fans. I thank our faculty, staff, students, loyal alumni and friends for their support in making this impressive facility possible. Under the complex’s “Big A” sign, there’s a lot to cheer about: The Mountaineers have earned both the Southern Conference’s Commissioner’s Cup for overall excellence in men’s athletics 29 times since the award was established in 1979 and the Germann Cup, recognizing the top women’s program in the conference, six of the 18 years the award has been presented. In addition, our student-athletes consistently make the Southern Conference’s Academic Honor Roll. For all students, Appalachian aspires to be a model 21st-century, nationally recognized university combining the best characteristics of a liberal arts education with the opportunities afforded by many research institutions. We are committed to attracting, educating and graduating the best students and to producing the highest levels of scholarship. Appalachian, an influential world citizen preparing students for life in global and local communities, remains an excellent value. Once again, Kiplinger Personal Finance magazine has recognized Appalachian in its list of the nation’s top 100 values in public colleges and universities in 2008-09. Kiplinger’s rankings are based on a combination of outstanding academic quality and an affordable price tag. We are also committed to improving citizen’s lives in this region, state and nation through research, such as the federally supported AppalAIR project that monitors air quality and atmospheric conditions and their impact on the region’s ecosystems and climate. Construction of a model house on campus to test innovative technologies and building practices is an example of the energy solutions for which Appalachian is becoming known. In addition, our students are committed to sustainability – as evidenced by their self-imposed Renewable Energy Initiative fee that supports projects such as the installation of solar panels at Raley Hall and a solar thermal system for providing hot water to Plemmons Student Union. Notable scholarship, excellent teaching and meaningful service define this institution. Thank you for your continued support of Appalachian, and I hope you enjoy the game. With Mountaineer pride,

Boone, North Carolina Boone lies nestled in a small valley in the heart of the Southern Appalachians and is named after the hunter and explorer Daniel Boone, who spent time in the region during the 1760s. Among its accolades are inclusion in National Geographic Adventure magazine’s “Best Places to Live and Play,” Norman Crampton’s “100 Best Small Towns in America,” USA Today’s “10 Great Small Towns with Huge Backyards” and U.S. News and World Report’s “10 Best Places to Retire in the U.S.” Watauga County was formed in 1849 and the Town of Boone incorporated in 1872. Appalachian State University began as Watauga Academy in 1899 to educate the mountain children and ultimately to prepare teachers for service through western North Carolina. It became Appalachian State Teachers College in 1929 and joined the University of North Carolina system in 1971. Boone and Appalachian grew up together in the secluded wilderness, with few roads and no railroad linking them to the communities that lay in pockets below. This relative isolation allowed both town and school to develop strong character through overcoming adversity and created a unique heritage for both. Boone is now a bustling university town characterized by beautiful mountain scenery, distinct four-season weather, mountain heritage culture and casual living – and it is the center of tourism and commerce for Watauga County and the surrounding High Country. Outdoor activities, cultural events, fine dining and unique shopping bring visitors from all over the world to experience the friendly, welcoming face of this mountain town. Boone enjoys a low rate of unemployment with the university as its top economic driver followed by a combination of tourism, small business and residential home construction. Boone is a year-round playground for business meetings and conferences, as well as leisure. The cool summers, dazzling colors of fall and serene winters offer something for every nature lover. An unusually wide array of quality arts and cultural programming enhance the Boone community. The university’s An Appalachian Summer Festival, a month-long celebration of performing and visual arts, celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2009. Notable performers include Lily Tomlin, Branford Marsalis, Paul Taylor Dance Company, London City Opera, Andre Watts, Charlie Daniels and the Glenn Miller Orchestra. During the academic year, Appalachian hosts the Performing Arts Series with artists such as Garrison Keillor and the National Symphony Orchestra. The jewel of downtown Boone is the university’s Turchin Center for the Visual Arts. It features six gallery spaces and a robust community education and outreach program. Its exhibitions focus on a blend of new and historically important artwork, and feature nationally and internationally renowned artists as well as many of the finest artists of the region. Boone offers an uncommon quality of life. That’s why many visitors come for a weekend and stay for a lifetime.
