2012 OutLOOk Head coach Dan Donigan embarks on his third season at the helm of a program that showed marked improvement in his second year in charge of the Scarlet Knights. The 11-year college coaching veteran led the squad to a Sweet 16 appearance in 2011, its first trip back to the NCAA Tournament since 2006 and best performance since 2001.

Donigan and his coaching staff were recognized with the NSCAA/ Mondo Northeast Region Coach of the Year honors after helping turn in one of the most successful campaigns in recent history. In addition, assistant coach Dave Beck was awarded the NSCAA Assistant Coach of the Year (Northeast Region). The Rutgers coaching staff will be up for the challenge of duplicating its success from a year ago, this time with a far younger squad in tow. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team welcomes 13 newcomers and features 21 players with two years of playing experience or less. Eight veterans dot the Scarlet Knight roster and their leadership will be integral as Donigan continues to establish the tradition of Rutgers soccer. The Scarlet Knights returns their top two scorers in Juan Pablo Correa and Kene Eze. The pair each posted a team-high six goals, while Correa added five assists and Eze CORREA

chipped in three. Correa concluded his stellar freshman season with a selection to the BIG EAST All-Rookie Team and NSCAA Second Team All-Northeast Region honors. Among the group of returns who are poised to contribute are midfielders Robin Brown, Nathan Bruccoleri, Max Moller and Todd Webb as well as defenders Dragan Naumoski and Joe Setchell. Brown, Bruccoleri, Naumoski and Setchell each tallied points last season with Brown recording one assist, while Bruccoleir scored two goals and one assist. Naumoski was third on the squad with three assists and Setchell posted his first career goal in 2011. Anchoring the Scarlet Knight defense will be EZE fifth-year senior goalkeeper Kevin McMullen who had a breakout junior season. McMullen became RUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s regular starter after game two and went on to post a 9-6-4 record, including a career-best three shutouts while also helping Rutgers to a seven-game unbeaten streak to close out the regular season.

2011 SEaSON rEViEw The Rutgers men’s soccer program made strides in 2011, under head coach Dan Donigan in his second year on the banks. The team earned its first NCAA tournament appearance since 2006, advancing to the Sweet Sixteen before their post season run ended. There were also a number of impressive individual performances throughout the year as the Scarlet Knights finished 11-7-3 overall and 6-1-2 in BIG EAST Conference play.

suffered an early setback, dropping its second game of the year at Furman 3-1. The Scarlet Knights’ performance in their next game served as a harbinger of things to come as RU defeated the College of Charleston which was just outside of the top-25 rankings at the time. The early, hard-fought win gave the squad confidence in facing the tough competition it would see throughout the year.

Several members of the 2011 team earned BIG EAST honors. Seniors Ibrahim Kamara and Nate Bourdeau were named Third Team All-BIG EAST selection, while freshman Juan Pablo Correa was named to the BIG EAST All-Rookie Team. Additionally, Correa was selected to the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) Second Team All-Northeast Region. The Scarlet Knights finished the season ranked in the final NSCAA poll at No. 23.

The Scarlet Knights second-straight win came in a 3-1 defeat of Drexel, however, RU endured a slight skid with back-to-back shutout losses against a pair of ranked opponents in No. 25 Iona (1-0) and No. 9 Indiana (2-0).

Donigan and his staff were recognized for a successful year as he received the NSCAA/Mondo Coach of the Year award for the Northeast Region. Assistant coach Dave Beck was also named the NSCAA Northeast Region Assistant Coach of the Year. The Scarlet Knights showed a complete turnaround throughout the season, beginning with a much improved performance during the conference slate. After going 1-8-0 in conference action in 2010, the Scarlet Knights responded with the best turnaround in BIG EAST history since the league moved to a 16-member, two-division format in 2005, amassing a 6-2-1 conference record to finish second in the Red Division. The differences were also seen on the offensive end as Rutgers more than doubled its goal-scoring and assist production from 2010 to 2011. Recording 13 goals and eight assists in 2010, the Scarlet Knights topped that mark with 32 goals and 27 assists in 2011. Rutgers opened the season defeating La Salle at home 3-1, but

RU opened the BIG EAST schedule with a commanding 3-1 win over Pittsburgh, tied Adelphi 3-3, fell at Marquette 2-0 and dropped another hard-fought contest against a ranked opponent with a 2-1 overtime loss at No. 2 Maryland. The loss against the Terrapins was the final defeat for the Scarlet Knights until the final game of the tournament as Rutgers closed out the regular season on a seven-game unbeaten streak. Rutgers won four-straight, defeating Cincinnati (2-1), Villanova (3-2), DePaul (1-0) and Syracuse (2-1). The Scarlet Knights took on its fourth ranked foe of the season, earning a 1-1 draw at No. 10 Louisville, followed by its only win over a ranked opponent, defeating No. 11 St. John’s 1-0 on the road. RU closed out the regular season with a scoreless draw against No. 5 USF. Despite suffering a loss in the quarterfinals of the BIG EAST Championship against No. 7 Connecticut (3-1), the Scarlet Knights returned to their winning ways after earning an at-large bid to the 2011 NCAA Tournament. Hosting a first-round opponent in Colgate at Yurcak Field, Rutgers defeated the Raiders 4-2 en route to a second round matchup on the road at No. 8 Boston College. After going down 1-0 in the 52nd minute, the Scarlet Knights battled back to find the equalizer in the 86th minute. Holding the score at 1-1 through both overtimes, RU eventually advanced on penalty kicks to make it to its first Sweet 16 appearance since 2001. A thrilling season came to a close on in the third round as the Scarlet Knights fell at the hands of No. 4 UCLA 3-0 on the road.
