Most recently, before returning to CSUDH, Cano served as the founding director of soccer at NAIA's Soka University of America from 2006-2018, adding the head coach title for the men's program in 2007.  Two years later, he founded the women's program for a dual head coaching role he held for seven years before focusing his efforts solely on the men's side in 2013.  Prior to his appointment at Soka, he led the UC Irvine women's soccer program to a 113-96-26 record as head coach from 1993-2005. Cano brings an impressive pedigree back to the Cardinal and Gold, a program he led to a pair of NCAA semifinal appearances, with the first in 1989.  As a Toro, Cano posted an impressive 133-58-16 (.681) record that included an even more impressive 15-6-1 (.705) ledger in California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) competition.   Overall, he boasts one NCAA Title (1991), two NCAA semifinal appearances (1989, 1991), two NCAA Far West titles (1989, 1991), two CCAA Championship crowns (1991, 1992) and one CCAA Coach of the Year (1989) honor.    Cano holds 47 years of overall coaching experience that includes 25 years coaching women's soccer at NCAA Division I, Division II and NAIA levels. He also holds United States Soccer Federation (USSF) 'A,' 'B' and 'C' licenses as well as an NSCAA (now known as United Soccer Coaches) National Advanced License.   A former goalkeeper, Cano competed professionally in both the United States and overseas in the American Soccer, North American Soccer, Major Indoor Soccer, American Professional Soccer, Western Soccer Alliance and Western leagues, as well as for the USA National Team (1976).    Cano becomes the fifth head coach in CSUDH women soccer history, and has amassed an overall record of 322-218-58 as a coach at the Division I and Division II levels.
