Coach Mascaro takes over the women's soccer program after serving the last five years as the Associate Head Coach.  During her time, the Lions have posted a 79-19-5 record and won four conference championships.  The 2007 Vanguard graduate played for Coach Dodge when he took over the program. She was a three-year team captain and earned NAIA Scholar-Athlete twice.  As a four-year starter, Mascaro appeared in 73 games primarily as a outside-back defender and played in seven games as a goalkeeper.  She holds the school record for the most saves in a game (16).  After earning her degree from Vanguard, she went on to Cal State Long Beach to earn her Master's in Sport Psychology.  She was a part of the Lions first GSAC Championship and first NAIA National Tournament team appearance in 2009 as an assistant coach. She went on to coach at Aliso Niguel High School, Woodbridge High School, Irvine Slammers (now LA Galaxy OC), and the Pateadores before returning to Vanguard in 2014.
