2015 MEN’S SOCCER

2015 SEASON PREVIEW Expectations are high for the 2015 edition of UAB men’s soccer, and rightfully so, as the Blazers have qualified for the 48-team NCAA Tournament three times in the last four seasons. Seven starters return from the 2014 squad, including the 2014 C-USA Offensive Player of the Year in Freddy Ruiz, plus four other all-conference players from a year ago – Ian Svantesson, David Valverde, DeAndre Robinson and Mathieu Laurent. “Everybody is really excited,” head coach Mike Getman said. “We return a lot of talented players and a lot of players with NCAA Tournament experience. Last year we were playing really well at the end of the year and lost in penalty kicks in the NCAA Tournament. The team came away with a lot of confidence and the guys have been waiting for eight months to get back on the field for games that count. Everybody is excited and everybody knows this could be a special year. We return a real strong core from last season, but we do have some really exciting young players joining us as well. In every way we expect this to be a great year.” New to the program this season are eight newcomers – three defenders, one keeper, three midfielders and one forward – plus the introduction of the new BBVA Compass Field, a project that Getman hopes will be put in use before the 2015 campaign is over. “For 22 years we’ve played at West Campus Field and it’s been a good home and we’ve had a lot of success there, but the new field is going to be so beautiful,” Getman said. “We’ve waited for it for so long and these players have watched the building process begin and it’s almost complete. Everybody is looking forward to that new facility, and of course, it’s right next to our current game field so you can’t help but see it every single day. It adds excitement to our current players, adds excitement to our future recruits, our staff is looking forward to it like crazy and I think we all know we’re going to have one of the nicest homes in college soccer. We can’t wait for it to be done.” The Schedule Matches against seven NCAA Tournament teams, including nine home contests, highlight the 2015 slate for the Blazers. Three of UAB’s opponents were among the top 16 seeds in last year’s national tournament. “If you want to be the best, you have to play the best,” Getman said. “If you want your players to continue to improve and develop, you have to give them new challenges every year. This schedule is certainly the most difficult we’ve had in a long time.” To kick off the 2015 campaign, the Blazers will take part in two exhibitions. The Green and Gold will make the trip to Louisville Aug. 18, before hosting Clemson Aug. 22. Following the preparation games, the regular season gets underway Aug. 28 at longtime rival and former C-USA member school Memphis. “We open up with Louisville and Clemson, two teams that were in the Sweet 16 last year,” Getman said. “Then we have Memphis, who’s been a perennial foe, a team that we’ve had a great rivalry with over the years, and obviously is a former C-USA team. So that’ll be a good matchup with them in the first regular season game of the year at their place.” The home slate opens Aug. 30 at West Campus Field against Stetson, a team the Blazers have never faced. While there is no history on the field, there is off, and it’ll certainly prove to be an intriguing matchup according to Getman. “Stetson is our first home game,” Getman said. “Their head coach is my former assistant coach, Ernie Yarborough. He was the conference coach of the year last year in his first year as a head coach and did a great job at Stetson and really turned the program around. They’re going to give us a very good challenge and a team we’ve never played before so it’ll be something new. The teams don’t know each other but our coaches do, so we know what their style of play will be.” To kick off the first of two tournaments, UAB will make the trek to Indiana to face Notre Dame and the Hoosiers in the Mike Berticelli Memorial Tournament. “Heading up to Notre Dame, they were No. 1 in the nation for much of the year last year,” Getman said. “Playing at their place is always a great challenge and they’re simply a great team. Indiana is my alma mater and we’ve had a great series over the years. Two years ago they were defending national champions and we beat them here and it was a very exciting match. I’m certain they’re going to want revenge after that. They were winning with 15 seconds left in the game and we managed to steal it from them. I expect it to be a great match and a fun game.” From there, UAB hosts four matches in a row, including the 18th Annual “Soccer 7

U A B

for a Cure” Classic. “It just continues on with more great games,” Getman said. “Our classic here, we’ll have two very difficult games with Illinois-Chicago, a very successful team over the years, and Gardner-Webb, who we haven’t played in a few years. The last time we played them they eliminated us in the NCAA Tournament about 10 years ago, and again I think that’ll be a very good game.” The C-USA slate opens Sept. 18 with a home match vs. South Carolina. In all, the Blazers will host four league matchups (South Carolina, FIU, Florida Atlantic, Charlotte) and travel to Old Dominion, New Mexico, Kentucky and Marshall in league play. “All the conference games, they’re always going to be challenging,” Getman said. “This conference is one of the top leagues in the country. Every game in the league will be challenging, but we’ve also got Akron coming to us. They were national champions just a few years ago. Every single game will be a big game. Every game is a game we think we can win, but we also know if we don’t play well we will lose. I think that’s what it takes to develop players and to develop our team. You have to play great teams day in and day out to push yourself and we’ll push, there’s no doubt about that.” The Forwards There’s no doubt UAB’s strong suit heading into the year is it’s group of forwards, who have consistently ranked near the top of the NCAA in scoring average in recent years. As noted before, the 2014 C-USA Offensive MVP Freddy Ruiz returns, along with Rami Dajani, Karl Chester and Lawson Crider. The Blazers also add newcomer Kevin Wallace to the equation. “You win or lose by scoring goals and we’ve been one of the top goal scoring teams in the country the past three years,” Getman said. “We return all but one of the forwards from last year. Freddy Ruiz, who was the conference offensive player of the year, returns for his senior season. Rami Dajani had a great year last year and scored a lot of big goals. Karl Chester, who will also be a senior, has battled through some injuries, but he’s the healthiest he’s been, fittest he’s been and I certainly expect him to have a great senior season. Lawson Crider, who joined us a year ago, now has a year with us under his belt. He’s a great goal scorer. He didn’t get as much playing time last year, but he’s made huge progress and is an amazing finisher. All four of those guys return to give us more than enough talent to continue scoring goals.” Combined, Dajani and Chester scored six goals in 2014 and played in all but two matches. Wallace, an all-state selection in 2014 from Missouri, also brings more depth at the position. “We also have Kevin Wallace joining us as a freshman,” Getman said. “He’s a big, athletic kid who works his tail off and he gives us a fifth forward who I think can score for us. Up front will certainly be one of the strengths of this team. Which players will play what role is still to be determined, but we know no matter what we’ll be able to put the ball in the back of the net.” The Defenders Defense has also always been an advantage the Blazers have held, especially with its stout defenders in Ian Svantesson, Lars Willemse, James Ngoe and Stewart Abrahart Those experienced players return for 2015, along with a plethora of newcomers. “We graduated Darion Copeland, our captain, who’s a great player and started every single game for four years, so he certainly leaves a hole. But, we return everybody else that played significant minutes,” Getman said. “We also return Stewart Abrahart, who sat out the second half due to injury. In a sense we lost one starter and gained one starter, so it’s a very experienced back line. Between Stewart Abrahart, Lars Willemse, James Ngoe, Ian Svantesson, all four of those have started a lot of games for us over the last three or four years, but there’s a lot of other young guys who have also showed that they can contribute.” Along with the four returnees, Evan Scarbrough and Chandler Stroupe are back, plus the addition of Berry Sonnenschein, Erik Henze and Chris Reichman. Laurent, who played in all 20 games last season, is questionable heading into 2015 due to injury. “Evan Scarbrough really had a great spring and stepped up. Chandler Stroupe is also ready to have a great year for us. The back line for us is deep, talented and athletic. We’ve got some good young players coming and joining us. Berry Sonnenschein from Holland I think is going to compete for a starting position right away. Even though in my mind we return four starters, we have potentially 5-6 guys that really could be starting. It’s a deep group, athletic group, maybe most important it’s an experienced group. I feel very confident in our ability to defend. We’ll have to figure out again exactly what combination of B l a z e r s

2015 MEN’S SOCCER

2015 SEASON PREVIEW players, but having depth is really important. Defenders tend to take a beating over the course of the season, so being able to rest some people and share the load I think will be really important for us.” Last season, the UAB defense posted four shutouts. But even outside of their defensive skills, they also showed they can score. Between Svantesson, Willemse, Ngoe and Abrahart, the group combined for six goals and 11 assists. “Mathieu Laurent, who started every game the second half of the season, returns at the center of the back, but he was also injured this summer. Erik Henze is a freshman who’s joining us from here in Birmingham. He’s a big, powerful kid who will give us depth at the center back spot especially with Mathieu being injured. Chris Reichman is a defender from Colorado and very versatile player. He can either play from the left or right side and can even play the center. He’s a very good athlete, great skill, and a terrific soccer mind. He’s one who as he gets comfortable with what we’re doing, is going to make a big impact on UAB soccer. He’s going to be a new player that nobody has seen, but I think they’re going to enjoy watching him play.” The Midfielders Losing all-conference player Alex Clay and Pachinno Roberts certainly hurts, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t players in waiting for the 2015 campaign. “This will probably be the area with the most change,” Getman said. “Just because we graduated two seniors that started and played an awful lot of minutes last year – Alex Clay and Pachinno Roberts. Even Diego Navarrete, who played as a forward, played some in midfield. There will definitely be some change.” Returning in 2015 are William White, 2014 all-freshmen selections David Valverde and DeAndre Robinson, along with Henrique Sposito, Cole Iverson and Aaron Getman-Pickering. “William White, who played a little bit at the end of the year last year, has really stepped up and showed that he can be a major impact player, so we’re excited to have him back there. David Valverde, who started almost every game as a freshman, is a year more experienced and a year more ready to go, tremendously talented and has proven that he can compete at this level.” Of the group of returnees, three played in nearly every match, while three saw playing time in a number of contests in 2014. “DeAndre Robinson, who came in last season hurt as a freshman, is fully healthy and fully fit and had a great spring for us,” Getman said. “He’s shown what a dangerous player he can be and what he’s capable of at midfield so we expect his minutes to go up and him make a contribution. Henrique Sposito, who we had as a starter coming into the season, got hurt in preseason and barely played the whole year. He’s healthy and fit and back, and I think he’s a tremendous talent, probably the most skillful player on our team, so I think having him back in our lineup will improve our ability to keep possession. Cole Iverson is a fifth-year senior and he’s just been Mr. Reliable and that guy we’ve been able to plug in almost anywhere on the field. I expect him to have a great senior season. He’s skillful, smart, tough and a very complete player. There’s a lot of options, a lot of people, there’s some new guys coming in I think that will compete right away.

Forward Freddy Ruiz, the defending C-USA Offensive Player of the Year, returns for his senior campaign in 2015. The Goalkeepers Returning in goal for his junior season and second as a starter for UAB is keeper Joe Kuzminsky. The Denver, Colo. native tallied 69 saves a year ago and put together a 1.14 goals allowed average. “Just as you win with the ability to score goals, you win with the ability to keep the ball out of the net,” Getman said. “Joe had a great year for us last year, played almost every minute of every game. He’s rock solid and is a year older, has a year more experience, so I certainly expect him to have another fantastic season.” Behind Kuzminsky is Hunter Weber, a returning junior, and incoming freshman Kyle Lancaster. “Hunter Weber, who was in the No. 2 role last year, had a great spring and has worked incredibly hard this summer and made terrific progress,” Getman said. “I think we have two experienced goalkeepers that are both ready to play. We’re very solid in goal. Kyle Lancaster, a freshman who will join us, gives us even more depth, He’s young, talented and I think he’ll push both of those guys for playing time. There’s three to give us the comfort to know that if somebody is having an off day or somebody is a little beat up, no matter what we’re going to be safe in goal and that last line will be a very safe place for us.”

“Aaron Getman (Pickering) will be going into his junior season with us. He’s been sort of Mr. Versatility. He and Cole have kind of been plugged into spots to where we needed them. They both had great spring seasons for us. Aaron played a lot at defensive midfield, then he played a lot of attacking midfield, and again he’s a very technical, smart player and works his tail off everyday and I expect him to have a big year.” Among the newcomers at the midfield position are Ryan Sullivan, Eder Mora and Clay McDonald. Each are extremely talented according to Getman, and expected to make a big contribution moving forward. “Ryan Sullivan is a transfer from Clemson,” Getman said. “He’s a big, powerful kid and has some experience at a high level and I think he’ll contribute. Eder Mora, who has been to our camp for the past five or six years, is the top player coming out of Georgia. He’s very skillful, very smart and I think he’s going to make a major impact right away and compete for a starting position right away. Clay McDonald, because he’s a local kid, not everybody in the country knows him, but he’s very athletic and very skillful and capable of making an impact from the first day. There are a lot of guys that can help us get it done at midfield. There’s a lot of new names that maybe our fans don’t know, but a lot of them are guys who have played a role for us and are now ready to show what they can do.” 8

2015 MEN’S SOCCER

MIKE GETMAN Head Coach • 24th Season Indiana, 1982 Mike Getman has seen his dream of a UAB soccer program that would compete for conference titles and NCAA Tournament berths come true. Getman, now in his 24th season as UAB’s head coach, has led the Blazers to eight NCAA Tournament appearances, including a spot in the Elite Eight in 1999 and Sweet 16 in 2001. Additionally, he has led UAB teams to six regular season and tournament championships and has been selected the conference coach of the year on three different occasions. The Getman File Coaching Experience 1992 - Present............................... UAB (HC) 1987-91.....................................Harvard (HC) 1984-86......................................Indiana (AC)

In 2014, UAB qualified for its third NCAA Tournament appearance in the last four seasons and eighth overall, hosting an NCAA opening-round matchup for the fourth time in school history. The Blazers finished 2014 as the No. 25 scoring offense in the NCAA (1.80 GPG), the fifth-straight year of finishing in the top-50 in scoring in the NCAA.

The Blazers finished third in the C-USA regular season standings in 2014, the fourth time in the last six seasons of finishing topthree. Seven Blazers were also named All-Conference USA under Getman, as the Green and Gold were ranked as high as No. 18 at one point during the year. In 2013, UAB appeared in the NSCAA/Continental Tire Poll for 12 consecutive weeks and was ranked as high as No. 8 in the nation. The Blazers led the country in scoring, recording 2.39 goals per game in 2013. For the fifth-straight year, UAB won at least 10 matches, as the squad went 12-5-1. The fans came out in bunches to see the 2013 UAB men’s soccer team at West Campus Field, as the squad ranked No. 39 in the country in average home attendance. An average of 968 people attended the Blazers’ home matches last season. For the fourth time since 2003, UAB finished in the top 50 in the nation in average attendance. 3,205 people, a West Campus Field regular-season record, watched the Blazers defeat 2012 national champion Indiana, 2-1 in overtime, on Friday, Sept. 6. In addition, 1,776 people, the 10th-best crowd in facility history, came out to watch UAB play Charlotte to a 0-0 draw in the UAB “Soccer for a Cure” Classic on Friday, Sept. 1. The 2012 season proved to be another solid campaign, as the Blazers earned an at-large berth in the NCAA Tournament, marking the second straight year the team has played in the national tournament. It marked the third time in program history that the Green and Gold played in the NCAA Tournament in consecutive seasons. The Blazers finished the season with a 10-8-2 mark, the fourth year in-a-row with at least 10 victories. In all, it is a far cry from when Getman accepted the job of turning the Blazer program around. He inherited a program in 1992 that had just three winning records in its first 13 seasons. Getman set goals for the program and Blazer fans know that many of those original goals have been met or exceeded. Consider the following: - The Blazers have won 254 matches since 1993 for an average of more than 11 wins per season. - Eight trips to the NCAA Tournament - 1994, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2006, 2011, 2012, 2014 (The Elite Eight in `99 and Sweet 16 in `01). - Six conference titles, including four regular-season championships (C-USA in `95, `99 and `11 and Great Midwest in `94) and two conference tournament championship crowns (C-USA in `99 and Great Midwest in `94). - The Blazers have been ranked in the national poll in 19 of the last 21 seasons, including a highest ranking of No. 3 in 2003 and highest finish of eighth in 1999. - Defeated three No. 1-ranked teams in SMU (2006), North Carolina (2000), and UCLA (1997). - Victories over traditional national powers and ranked teams, such as No. 18 Coastal Carolina in 2014; No. 8 Indiana and No. 24 VCU in 2013; No. 20 Washington in 2012; No. 6 UCF and No. 15 SMU in 2011; No. 10 UIC and No. 13 Kentucky 1 0

2015 MEN’S SOCCER

MIKE GETMAN in 2009; No. 3 Indiana in 2007; No. 1 SMU and No. 17 Kentucky in 2006; No. 11 USF in 2004; No. 3 Saint Louis, No. 9 USF, No. 13 Furman (twice), and No. 20 South Carolina in 2001; No. 1 North Carolina and No. 6 Furman in 2000; No. 2 Saint Louis (twice), No. 5 Southwest Missouri State, No. 17 SMU, and No. 18 Santa Clara, all in 1999; and No. 1 UCLA in 1997. - 123 all-conference honorees. - Six conference Newcomer of the Year awards. - The building of a top-flight soccer facility on campus, West Campus Field. The facility attracts large crowds for not only UAB matches, but serves as a site for international soccer events. The Blazers became the first collegiate program to ever compete against the U.S. National Team in March 2000. UAB has won more than 70 percent of all its matches at WCF. - Getman is the winningest coach in Conference USA history with a record 97 league wins. - More than 100 conference academic honor roll members over the last 20 years. - Five Academic All-Americans. With all of those accomplishments, Getman is not satisfied. “We want to be a national contender every year,” he said. “We play in one of the toughest conferences in the nation, Conference USA, and we feel that our schedule helps us to prepare for postseason play.” In 2005, Getman was named the C-USA Coach of the Decade for his accomplishments during his coaching tenure at UAB. Furthermore, Getman has been named conference Coach of the Year three times. He holds a 300-181-45 (.613) mark in 28 seasons as a head coach and a 258-156-36 (.613) record in 23 seasons at UAB. Even more impressive is the total of 123 all-conference selections he has coached at UAB. From 2008-11, Getman served on the NCAA Men’s Soccer Committee. He also played a large part in bringing the 2011 and 2012 NCAA Men’s College Cup to Birmingham. Furthermore, Getman is ranked among college soccer’s top men’s active coaches (34th in winning percentage and 18th in victories). The 28-year coaching veteran also ranks among the winningest coaches in NCAA Division I soccer history, ranking 46th all-time in victories. Getman is among a handful of coaches who both played for and coached a team to the NCAA College Cup, accomplishing the feat twice as a player and once as a coach. Getman’s players’ successes extend off the field as well. Over 90 percent of student-athletes who have played four years during his tenure as head coach completed their degree requirements. He now boasts more than 100 C-USA honor roll members (3.0 GPA or above), 27 C-USA academic medal recipients (3.75 GPA or above) and five academic All-Americans.

Getman has further improved his already impressive academic standards over the past few years, as three Blazers have been tabbed the C-USA Scholar Athlete of the Year, with all three honorees coming over the last nine seasons (Lukasz Kwapisz in 2004, Jeremy Drake in 2006 and Wes Johnson in 2008). In fact, in 2006, Drake was tabbed the league’s Scholar Athlete of the Year for men’s soccer, while Lukasz Kwapisz earned the post-graduate scholarship award for men’s soccer. The duo was the only UAB student-athletes to earn the prestigious awards in any sport. UAB fans have responded to the program’s winning ways as home attendance average at West Campus Field over the past few years is close to 1,000. In 2003, UAB was 16th in the nation in average attendance (1,077/game) and 25th in the nation in total attendance (7,545). During the 2006 campaign, UAB ranked 31st in average attendance (853/game) and 43rd in total attendance (5,972). In 2009, UAB ranked 48th in total attendance (6,779). In 2011, the Blazers had three of the top-10 crowds in West Campus Field history. The Blazers opened the 2011 campaign B l a z e r s

2015 MEN’S SOCCER

MIKE GETMAN against Clemson in front of 3,141 fans, who witnessed the 2-1 UAB victory. The Green & Gold also played in front of 2,214 fans for the NCAA Tournament second round contest against Charlotte and 1,235 fans to the first-ever soccer match played at Regions Park (Hoover, Ala.) when the Blazers took on Memphis. Those crowds rank among the top in program history. The Blazers finished the 2011 season with a perfect 4-0 record against top-25 teams. UAB closed the year ranked No. 21 in the nation according to the National Soccer Coaches Associate of America (NSCAA) with a 13-5-3 mark. The Blazers finished C-USA play with a 6-1-1 record and a share of the regular season title. In 2009, a West Campus Field record crowd of 3,481 witnessed UAB’s 3-0 exhibition victory over Clemson. Even though that match did not count in the Blazers’ overall record, it served as a catalyst for the rest of the year and what was to come. Getman guided his 2009 squad to a 12-4-2 overall record, including road victories over No. 10 UIC (3-1) and No. 13 Kentucky (1-0). Despite the disappointment in missing the NCAA Tournament, Getman still managed to reach the 10-win plateau for the 14th time in his 18 seasons as head coach at UAB. Prior to the 2011 season, the Blazers last reached the NCAA Tournament in 2006, which capped a stretch of four NCAA Tournament appearances over an eight-year span. The campaign was highlighted when previously undefeated and then-No. 1-ranked SMU invaded West Campus Field. In front of a then-record crowd of 2,755 fans, the Blazers stunned the Mustangs, 2-1, to set off an impressive run of 3-0-2 to end the campaign. UAB also defeated No. 10 Notre Dame (1-0), No. 16 South Carolina (3-2), No. 18 Kentucky (1-0/ot) and No. 24 UNC Greensboro (3-2) during the season. In 1999, the Blazers began the most successful three-year stretch in UAB men’s soccer history by advancing to the NCAA quarterfinals. The Blazers won both the Conference USA regular season and tournament championships, finished eighth in the final NSCAA national poll and posted a 17-6 overall record. The Blazers The Getman family (left to right): Ethan, Rena, Nathan, Mike, and Eli set the school record for wins in a season and had a school record 13-match winning streak. In 2000, the Blazers fell to Washington in a four-overtime match that was arguably the most exciting NCAA Tournament match ever played. It was UAB’s first appearance in the tournament as an at-large team and the first back-to-back appearance in school history. UAB would finish that year 14-5-2 overall mark and a 5-1-2 record in C-USA play. In 2001, UAB made a third consecutive trip to the NCAAs. The Blazers opened tournament play with a 1-0 overtime victory over Furman, then defeated region hosts South Carolina, 3-2, to earn a trip to the Sweet 16 for the second time in three years. Despite dropping a 3-2 double overtime heartbreaker to Clemson, UAB finished 15-6, runner-up in C-USA, and set a school record with nine players selected to all-conference teams. Getman came to Birmingham from Harvard, where he was head coach from 1987-91. During his time at the Cambridge, Mass., school, his teams posted a 42-26-9 (.604) record, including a 21-11-3 (.643) mark in Ivy League play. In his first season at Harvard, he led his team to the 1987 NCAA Final Four, as the Crimson went 14-1-3 and captured the Ivy League title. He became the youngest coach (28) to lead a team to the Division I Final Four. The following season, Harvard was ranked No. 1 for the first time in the school’s history. While at Harvard, Getman developed 21 All-Ivy League players, nine All-New England performers and two All-Americans. He started his coaching career at his alma mater, Indiana, where he served as an assistant coach from 1984-86. In those three seasons, the Hoosiers were in the NCAA Tournament twice and played in the 1984 title game. Getman played professionally as a defender for the Detroit Express of the American Soccer League from 1982-83. He was the team’s Rookie of the Year in 1982, as the Express won the ASL championship. A three-year letterwinner at Indiana, he played fullback for the Hoosiers from 1977-81, during which time IU finished as an NCAA Division I national finalist in 1978 and 1980. A native of Bloomington, Ind., he earned his bachelor’s degree in economics from Indiana in 1982 and his master’s in athletic administration from IU in 1987. Involved in all facets of soccer, Getman has been South Region coach for the U.S. Soccer Festival. He was the chairman of the soccer games committee for the 1996 Birmingham Olympic Soccer Committee. He has also served as a guest columnist on the 1998 World Cup Tournament for the Birmingham Post-Herald. He and his wife, Rena, reside in Homewood. They have three children, Nathan (21), Eli (16), and Ethan (15).

JOEL WALLACE Assistant Coach • 7th Season MacMurray, 1991 Joel Wallace, a former UAB assistant who spent 11 years as the head men’s soccer coach at Westminster (Mo.) College, enters his seventh season in his second stint on the Blazers’ staff. Wallace specializes in working with goalkeepers and continues that role in his position with the Blazers. UAB head coach Mike Getman feels Wallace is an excellent asset to his staff and for his players.

Westminster (HC) 1997....................................MacMurray (HC) 1996.................................. Connecticut (AC) 1994-95............................................

“Coach Wallace brings a lot of energy and experience to our team,” said Getman. “I am very excited to have such an outstanding coach in our program. His primary responsibility is coaching our goalkeepers, but he will have a hand in all aspects of UAB Soccer.” Wallace, who boasts more than 20 years of collegiate soccer coaching experience, was the head men’s coach at Westminster from 1998-2008. Additionally, he coached the women’s soccer team from 2005-08. Wallace was an assistant coach at UAB under Getman from 1994-95.

Wallace left the Westminster men’s program as the winningest soccer coach in school history, racking up an 11-year record of 105-85-16. Additionally, he guided the Blue Jays to the school’s first conference title in soccer and its first-ever NCAA tournament appearance in 2002. Including his one year spent as a head coach at his alma mater, MacMurray (Mo.) College, Wallace has compiled a career record of 121-91-17 during his 12-year head coaching career. Prior to becoming a collegiate head coach, Wallace spent five seasons as an assistant coach at MacMurray College (1992-94) and Connecticut (1996), as well as with the Blazers. While at UAB, Wallace also earned his master’s degree in athletic administration. Wallace is a graduate of MacMurray College where he earned first-team all-conference and all-region honors in the net. During his playing days (1988-91), Wallace helped lead MacMurray to the NCAA Division III Sweet 16 (1990) and Elite Eight (1991). He was also tabbed a two-time Prairie College Conference Most Valuable Player (1989 and 1990). He still holds several school records, including most career shutouts (40), most shutouts in a season (18 in 1991), and most consecutive shutouts (7). His 18 shutouts during the 1991 campaign also are an NCAA Division III record. Wallace has two children, a daughter, Ryli (19), and son, Kevin (18), who is a member of the UAB men’s soccer program.

2014 SEASON REVIEW Blazers Earn At-Large Bid To NCAA Tournament For the third time in four years, and eighth time overall, UAB received a bid to the NCAA Tournament. It marked the fourth opening-round matchup the Blazers hosted in school history, and fifth overall. UAB and Furman fought hard into three overtimes at West Campus Field, before the Paladins eventually were the winners in a 4-3 penalty shootout to advance to the second round. Seven Blazers Earned All-Conference USA Honors UAB tied its record for most all-confernece honorees in a single season in 2014, as seven Blazers picked up postseason league awards. Freddy Ruiz and Darion Copeland were named First Team All-C-USA, while Alex Clay landed a spot on the second team. Ian Svantesson was a All-C-USA Third Team honoree, and Mathieu Laurent, DeAndre Robinson and David Valverde picked up C-USA All-Freshman Team honors. Ruiz Named C-USA Co-Offensive MVP

Defender Darion Copeland was a C-USA First Team selection in 2014, and earned All-C-USA honors each year with the Blazer program.

Forward Freddy Ruiz became the first UAB player in five years to earn a league MVP honor, as he was named Co-Offensive MVP.

The Blazers were also ranked or received votes each week in the NSCAA Poll, and were as high as No. 2 in the NSCAA Regional poll. The Bennet rankings slotted UAB as high as No. 19 midway through the season.

Ruiz led the league in goals (10) and ranked 24th in the NCAA. He also ranks eighth all-time in career goals with 24, still with his senior season left to play in 2015. Blazers Near Top of NCAA RPI, Polls UAB was ranked as high as No. 17 in the NCAA RPI report, and never dropped below No. 30 throughout the 2014 season.

UAB Finishes 25th In Scoring Nationally After leading the NCAA in scoring in 2013, the Blazers backed that up with another top performance in 2014 in terms of offense. UAB finished 25th nationally in scoring offense (1.80 GPG), 24th in total goals (36), 37th in total assists (31), 28th in total points (103) and 27th in points per game (5.15). Michalak Repeats As Academic All-American Selection Senior defender Ian Michalak of the UAB menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soccer team earned Capital One Academic All-America honors for the second year in a row. After becoming just the second player in program history to earn CoSIDA Academic All-America honors last year as a second team honoree, Michalak was named to the third team this season. He also earned CoSIDA Academic All-District 4 Team honors again this season and was named to the Conference USA All-Academic Team for the second-straight year. The Collierville, Tenn. native played in 13 games for the Blazers, helping the squad advance to its third NCAA Championship in four years. He took three shots as a defender for one on target in his senior campaign.

Forward Freddy Ruiz became just the second UAB player to earn C-USA Offensive MVP honors in school history, after leading the league in goals (10). 4 0

2014 SEASON REVIEW The honor marks the second for Ruiz after being named to the All-Midwest Region Second Team last year, and third for Copeland after earning third team honors in 2011 and second team honors in 2013. Ruiz earned C-USA Co-offensive MVP honors after being named the Preseason C-USA Offensive Player of the Year. The Fort Payne, Ala. native was the leading scorer in the C-USA regular season with 10 goals, a mark that ranked 18th in the NCAA and topped all players in the NCAA’s Southeast region. His season total 22 points were second best in the conference and 29th in the NCAA. He averaged 0.59 goals per game, which was tops in the league and 20th in the NCAA. Copeland was also an All-C-USA First Team selection this season, and earned all-conference honors each year while at UAB. The Stockbridge, Ga. native, a key leader of the program since 2011, helped the UAB backline record three shutouts and hold opponents to one goal or less 14 different games. He played in all but one match for the Blazers dating back to 2011 and scored one goal and one assist for the Blazers in 2014.

Ian Michalak earned repeat CoSIDA Academic All-America honors in 2014, landing a spot on the third team in his final season.

In the classroom, Michalak has maintained a 3.92 GPA majoring in neuroscience. He has earned C-USA Commissioner’s Honor Roll honors every year while in Birmingham and has also earned the league’s Academic Medal each year while with the Green and Gold. Hunter Weber Earns C-USA Spirit of Service Award Hunter Weber was named one of the 14 honorees for the 2014 Fall Conference USA Spirit of Service award. The Little Rock, Ark. native is the first UAB men’s soccer player to earn the award since Tucker Stone earned the honors in 2010. Dean Sorrell was also an honoree in 2008. Weber is the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) representative for the squad and led the 17th Annual “Soccer For A Cure” Initiative at Children’s of Alabama Hospital this past September. With the annual event, Weber visited with young cancer patients and shared gifts and stories from his experiences on the field. He is also active at a child development center as well as the reading mentors program through Better Basics at Glen Iris Elementary. He is a two-time C-USA Commissioner’s Honor Roll honoree and has earned Athletic Director Academic Honor Roll distinction in each of his semesters at UAB. Weber is part of a squad that has been ranked nationally dating back to the preseason poll in 2013, and was also a member of this year’s squad that earned an at-large bid to the NCAA Men’s Soccer Championship.

2015 MEN’S SOCCER

WEST CAMPUS FIELD The field has also received international attention as the United States National Team trained at West Campus Field and took on the Blazer men’s soccer team in a scrimmage in the spring of 2000. UAB became the first ever collegiate program to scrimmage the full National Team. The Blazers took on the U.S. U-17 squad in an exhibition match in 2004, as well. West Campus Field was also the sight for the U.S. National Team’s training for their 2005 World Cup Qualifier against Guatemala. UAB also hosted the Colorado Rapids in an exhibition game in the spring of 2005. Additionally, the Blazers have been one of the top draws in NCAA men’s soccer. In 2013, a West Campus Field regular-season record crowd of 3,205 fans witnessed UAB defeat 2012 national champion Indiana, 2-1, in overtime. The Blazers have finished among the top-50 in the nation in average attendance five times in the last 12 years.

One of the most imposing home fields in all of college soccer, UAB’s West Campus Field is in its 23rd season of service to the Blazers in 2015. The facility was expanded in 1999 to include a practice field behind the game surface. This, along with other major structural improvements, have given UAB one of the best overall soccer facilities in the nation. Prior to the 1998 season, several improvements were made to the facility, including stadium seating for men’s and women’s soccer. The stadium seating holds 1,500 spectators to push the maximum capacity of West Campus Field to over 2,500. “West Campus Field is a tremendous facility,” UAB head coach Mike Getman said. “The addition of the stadium and the practice field area make it one of the top fields in college soccer. We thank all those who were involved in the effort to make the improvements a reality.” UAB’s men’s soccer games returned to campus for the 1993 season. Since that time, the Blazers own a record of 139-4616 (.731) at West Campus Field. UAB posted a school record 25-match unbeaten streak (24-0-1) at home that stretched from Oct. 17, 1993 through Oct. 6, 1996. The facility has seen championship play as UAB hosted the Elite Eight and first rounds of the NCAA Championship in 1999, 2006, 2011 and 2014. The Blazers also hosted the 1999 and 2007 Conference USA Championships and the 1994 Great Midwest Conference Championship. First round games of the Conference USA Championship have also been played at West Campus Field. 7 4

The Blazers set an all-time attendance record on Aug. 22, 2009 when they took on Clemson in an exhibition contest to begin the 2009 season. WCF saw an all-time record of 3,481 fans pack the stadium for the 3-0 victory. In fact, over the past 12 seasons, the Blazers have finished among the top-50 in the nation in average attendance five times (2003: 16th, 2006: 31st, 2011: 29th, 2013: 39th, 2014: 39th) and total attendance three times (2003: 25th, 2006: 43rd, 2011: 22nd, 2014: 47th).

2015 MEN’S SOCCER

BBVA Compass Field BBVA Compass and UAB officials announced in November a $1.5 million gift from the bank that will bring a new soccer facility to the campus. In recognition of the gift, the University of Alabama System Board of Trustees approved naming the facility BBVA Compass Field. “This is an exciting milestone for our continued growth, and I thank BBVA Compass for this generous support,” said UAB President Ray L. Watts. “Plans for this facility have been in place for some time, and I am pleased that BBVA Compass can be recognized for their generous gift through this naming.” Located south of University Boulevard just east of I-65, BBVA Compass Field will be the first impression visitors encounter as they enter campus from I-65. “In an era when the community and UAB are connected in mutual support and growth like never before, I am proud that this facility and the BBVA Compass name will welcome students, faculty and staff, as well as guests onto our campus,” Watts said. UAB Men’s Soccer and Women’s Soccer will play home games at the facility, which will also host non-UAB soccer matches. The facility is anticipated to seat roughly 2,500. “This is great for Birmingham and UAB,” said BBVA Compass Chairman and CEO Manolo Sánchez. “BBVA Compass Field will showcase one of the most popular sports in the world and allow us to support UAB’s diverse campus and international community. It’ll also contribute in a meaningful way to the revitalization of the urban core of this historic and important American city.” “Philanthropic support like this is critical to this great institution,” said UAB Senior Vice President Shirley Salloway Kahn. “And this was a great opportunity to match a donor’s gift with their interest.” BBVA Compass has a strong record of engaging with the communities it serves through the global sport of soccer. Its parent company, Spain-based BBVA Group, sponsors La Liga, one of the most popular professional sports leagues in

the world, and BBVA Compass Stadium in Houston is the home of Major League Soccer’s Houston Dynamo. Birmingham itself is no stranger to soccer. The city had the highest ESPN audience in the country for the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifying match between the United States and Mexico, according to socceramerica.com, at almost twice the national viewership average. The city was also among the top 18 U.S. markets in television ratings records during the 2014 World Cup. Inaugural seasons for the men’s and women’s programs were in 1979 and 1996, respectively, and both have experienced success. The UAB women’s team won a Conference USA Championship in 2004. Head Women’s Coach Harold Warren helped coach the University of Southern California to a National Championship in 2007. “The new facility will help make UAB a top contender when putting in bids to host Conference USA and the first round of the NCCA tournament,” Warren said. “The ability to attract ACC, Big 12 and Big 10 schools for play helps the program’s competitive growth, and fans love watching UAB compete against the best. It’s a win-win for everyone.” Under the leadership of UAB Men’s Head Coach Mike Getman, the UAB men’s team has won six Conference USA titles and made seven NCAA appearances. “Recruits will know they are joining a program that is first class, and that the university and our community support the team,” Getman said. Of the gift, UAB Athletic Director Brian Mackin said, “This generous gift will undoubtedly be a tremendous benefit to our men’s and women’s soccer programs, as well as soccer in the community.” BBVA Compass Birmingham City President Alan Register says the gift is about more than soccer, pointing to its broader impact. “UAB is vital to the economic and cultural future of our community, and an investment in its continued growth and prosperity is one of the best ways to support Birmingham and Alabama,” Register said.

What is “Soccer for a Cure”? The objective of these initiatives are to raise awareness of and donations to cancer related organizations in Georgia, Florida, and Alabama that are helping families in their battle against cancer. It is also a way to build a support group of volunteers across the United States that are willing to reach out and help families dealing with cancer in their community. “Soccer for a Cure” is a non-profit organization. Its purpose is to serve as a place where all levels of the soccer nation (youth, club, high school, college, adult, and professional) can stand together as a team to help families fight the battle against all types of cancer. Why was it started? It was started in January, 2008 by Charlie Corbitt, a cancer survivor and warrior advocate for others affected with cancer. He has been involved in college and high school soccer since 1993 and is currently the manager of the “SIS College Soccer Scoreboard” and the “National High School Soccer Scoreboard”. His hope is that the soccer nation will one day stand together hand in hand as one and become proactive in the fight against cancer. UAB “Soccer For A Cure” Classic The objective is to raise awareness of the battle that families deal with daily when a child has cancer. Additionally, the organization wants to raise as much as possible for the Alabama Children’s Hospital by asking thousands of families in Alabama. This year’s participating teams include tournament host UAB, Dayton, Jacksonville, and Vermont. Prior to the start of the tournament, selected student-athletes and coaches from each participating team will make a visit to the Children’s Hospital on the UAB Campus. The group will spend a day visiting with children, signing autographs and playing games, among other things, with children who may not have a chance to come see any of the weekend soccer action. It is not required, but fans in attendance are asked to make a modest donation (we suggest $5.00) during the UAB “Soccer For A Cure” Classic in September.

Also, it was the first time the state of Alabama hosted the NCAA Division I Men’s Soccer Championship. “We are honored that UAB has the opportunity to serve as the host school for the NCAA Men’s College Cup,” UAB Athletics Director Brian Mackin said at the time of the announcement. “This is the premier event in collegiate soccer and we’re excited to have a national championship coming to the Birmingham-Hoover metropolitan area. The NCAA Men’s College Cup will be a great platform to showcase our community and promote UAB Athletics. We look forward to hosting a first-class event that the NCAA, student-athletes, and soccer fans will be proud of and enjoy.” “Certainly everyone associated with the UAB soccer program is excited to have the opportunity to host the 2011 NCAA Championship,” UAB head men’s soccer coach Mike Getman said. “I think it will be a big boost in terms of recruiting and fan support in just the amount of publicity this event will generate. It will be a great event for college soccer and we are excited to help this event grow. I think UAB, the Alabama Sports Foundation, and the city of Hoover will do a great job putting on a world class event and make it something special.”
