TJ Kostecky arrived at Bard in July of 2019.

He came to Bard after 20 years as the head coach at Div. I LIU-Brooklyn, where he led the Blackbirds to the 2018 NCAA Tournament in his final season there. During his tenure there, he won three Northeast Conference titles, made three NCAA Tournament appearances and was the NEC Coach of the Year in 2015 and 2018.

The memorable inaugural season in D1 included an ASUN Coach of the Year nod for Head Coach Tim Chastonay, four All-Conference acknowledgements and an All-Region laurel (Jonas Skulstad).

"Steve is a young, energetic and local product who has already experienced a tremendous amount of success in his career," said Director of Athletics Robert C. Vowels, Jr. "His passion for coaching and mentoring student-athletes was evident from the start, and I believe he will be a great leader for the women's soccer program."

"I would like to start by thanking Robert Vowels, Holly Kerstner, Teri Kromrei and the rest of the search committee for giving me the opportunity to lead this great program," said Shelton. "Coaching at this level has always been a dream of mine and being able to do it so close to home is truly special. I couldn't be more excited to join the Titan family and continue to build on the tradition and success of this program. Although there are too many to name, I would like to thank everyone who helped me get to this point and believed in me throughout my coaching journey. I am truly grateful for your guidance and support."

Shelton was the top assistant and recruiting coordinator at Ball State the last three seasons, helping the Cardinals to the 2016 MAC regular-season championship, two MAC West Division titles and a run to the MAC title game in 2018.

In his three years, Ball State was 39-13-9, including 25-4-4 in conference play. In his first year, the Cardinals reached an all-time high of No. 40 in the NCAA RPI and compiled a school-record 10-game unbeaten streak and tallied a win at ACC opponent Louisville, the first victory for Ball State over a Power 5 opponent in a decade.

Ball State also recorded a 25-game home unbeaten streak in his tenure, which was the longest in the country at the time, and won a school-record nine games in a row during the 2018 season.

Before that, Shelton was the head coach at Concordia University in Ann Arbor and completely turned around the program, helping those Cardinals post their first winning season since the late 1990s. Concordia went from one win in his first season in 2011 to 9-9-1 in his third year and back-to-back 10-win campaigns in 2014 and 2015. The team skyrocketed up the NAIA rankings from No. 178 in 2011 to No. 27 in 2015. He also coached Concordia's first All-American in Julia Palushaj, who twice led the Wolverine-Hoosier Athletic Conference in scoring, and his team was full of student-athletes, managing a team GPA better than 3.5 every year.

He began his coaching career at Grosse Ile High School, where he was a standout prep player, coaching the junior varsity team from 2007-2009 before taking over as the varsity head coach from 2009-2011. He was the 2010 Huron League Coach of the Year and his program captured two district championships and a conference title. His 2010 team was a regional finalist and second in the state and his squad was the first ever to go 14-0 in the Huron League.

He was the Director of Coaching and Player Development at the Royal Oak Football Club after leaving Ball State. Shelton was also the Director of Coaching at the Delaware County Futbol Club in Muncie while he was at Ball State and coached with the Michigan Rush Soccer Club when he was at Concordia.

As a player, Shelton was an All-State selection and set the Grosse Ile records for assists in a season (27), assists in a career (52) and goals in a game (5). He helped his high school team to a state championship in 2002 and a ranking of No. 13 nationally in 2003.

He went on to play collegiately at Kalamazoo College and graduated from Western Michigan in 2008 with a degree in public policy.

Denison

Division 3

Brandon Bianco enters his second season as the head men's soccer coach at Denison in 2021. He became the program's ninth head coach in the 68-year history of the program on March 18, 2020. Coach Bianco's first season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

He comes to Denison after seven seasons as the head mens soccer coach at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio where he posted a career record of 61-47-21 (.554).

We are beyond thrilled to add Brandon Bianco to the Denison family, said Carney-DeBord. He is someone I have been associated with going back to my time as the head womens basketball coach and faculty member at Ohio Wesleyan University. Brandon displayed elite leadership skills as a student-athlete and as an assistant coach while being mentored by one of the games finest coaches in Jay Martin. He has continued to grow as a leader and mentor at Case Western Reserve. We believe Brandon is an expert in developing team culture while creating an environment for each individual to have the opportunity to reach his performance potential. We are very excited that the next chapter of his journey will be at Denison leading our student-athletes.

I feel extremely grateful and humbled to be selected to lead the Denison University men's soccer program as the next head coach, said Bianco. I want to thank Nan Carney-DeBord, Dr. Gregory Lott, and the entire search committee for their faith in me. I also want to acknowledge Rob Russo and Steven McCarthy for their dedication to the program and for leaving it on a solid foundation for the future. I'm so excited about the direction of our program and look forward to creating a transformative student-athlete experience for our players. The men's soccer program will strive for excellence in the classroom and on the field and will work extremely hard to achieve our ambitious goals. I know that we can accomplish special things in the men's soccer program, and I can't wait to get started working with our players.

Bianco quickly turned around a Case Western Reserve program that was coming off a 3-14-1 season in 2012. By 2018, Bianco had Case playing for a trip to the NCAA Division III Final Four. That season, the Spartans went 16-4-1 and were 5-0 against nationally-ranked opponents during the regular season. On Senior Day, CWRU handed top-ranked University of Chicago its first loss of the season. Case Western Reserve was selected to host the opening rounds and the sectional rounds of the NCAA Division III Tournament that season. In the Round of 16, Case advanced via penalty kicks in a 2-2 tie against Kenyon College before falling to Calvin, 3-1, in the national quarterfinals. That season Zachary Senft was named to the D3soccer.com All-America team

Case finished the 2018 season ranked seventh in the nation and Bianco and his staff were named the United Soccer Coaches Great Lakes Regional Coaching Staff of the Year. That season Bianco was named the Ohio Collegiate Soccer Association Mens Coach of the Year and the University Athletic Association tabbed them with Coaching Staff of the Year accolades.

In 2015, Bianco led the Spartans to a 13-4-1 record which was the third-most wins in program history at the time. That squad was ranked as high as No. 16 in the D-III rankings and midfielder Chris Cvecko was named an All-American and the UAAs Most Valuable Player. In all seven seasons at Case, Biancos teams have earned United Soccer Coaches Academic honors.

Since his arrival at Case Western Reserve, his mens soccer teams have posted team GPAs of 3.30 or better each semester and in 2015-16 his program posted the highest team GPA in Division III at 3.63. From 2015-18 he served on the NCAA Division III Championship committee and from 2017-18 he served as the chair of that committee.

Bianco is no stranger to Denison or the North Coast Athletic Conference. Prior to accepting the head coaching position at Case Western Reserve, he spent five years as an assistant coach at his alma mater, Ohio Wesleyan. A 2007 graduate, he was a four-year letter winner as a midfielder for a Battling Bishop squad that won three NCAC championships and advanced to the NCAA Division III Final Four.

As an assistant coach under legendary head coach Jay Martin, Ohio Wesleyan compiled a record of 91-14-20 with five conference titles. In 2011, Ohio Wesleyan won the NCAA Division III mens soccer national championship. That year he was named the Great Lakes Region Assistant Coach of the Year which spanned all three divisions of the NCAA. The Bishops qualified for the NCAA Division II Tournament in all five seasons with Bianco on board while achieving a No. 1 national ranking on numerous occasions.

Bianco graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in health and human kinetics from Ohio Wesleyan in 2007 and is on track to receive his Master of Science in Organization Development and Change from Case Western Reserve in the spring of 2020.

The Tigers placed eight players on the Liberty League All-Academic squad in 2015. From 1983 to 1986, Garno was a defender for the Tigers, helping RIT to an impeccable 59-8-6 record, four conference titles and four appearances in the NCAA Tournament. After a successful collegiate career at RIT, Garno turned to coaching. Prior to taking over at RIT, he served as an assistant coach at the University of Rochester from 1992 to 1995.

I attended the camp with my son. The information that the EXACT personnel provided was excellent. We are now much more informed regarding the college recruiting and scholarship qualification's. The coaches that mentored the boys were also very knowledgeable, devoted, and fun. The rating that was provided after the camp was very helpful to help guide my son with his future training. The camp helped to boost my son's confidence and love for the game. I cannot say enough about the camp. You guys are the best ! Thanks for your efforts!

Gretchen Knoblock

The numerous pieces of advice for student athletes was really good. This camp was a confidence builder for my son, and also empowering. Thanks for a well organized and educational camp.

This is the first ID Camp that I have attended and it was a positive experience in every way. The camp was very well organized leading up to the camp with very informative emails and preparation work for the camp. On the day of the camp, registration was well organized and the EXACT team was there to help for every step of the way. Chris was an excellent leader and motivated me from the very beginning. It was amazing to be exposed to real college coaches and to be coached both on and off the field. Getting feedback on the day was very rewarding. I am looking forward to attending EXACT Soccer Academic 50 ID Camp in June/July.

Parker McDonald

Player

I had an amazing experience at EXACT Camp. I enjoyed the opportunity to talk face-to-face with so many coaches from around the country. I also enjoyed the opportunity to train with new coaches. I am looking forward to visiting coaches that I met at their schools and getting to take a closer look at their programs. It was also cool to meet so many fellow athletes from other places and make new friends. Thank you so much for everything!! Thank you!!!

Chris Wraback

Player

Through this one day camp, EXACT Soccer has made me realize that my dream is so possible to reach. It's the only camp I've been to, but I was able to meet so many new people who share the same passion as me. I also learned how to elevate my recruiting game to reach my goal much easier.

Ethan Koopman

Parent

The information shared throughout the camp was priceless. EXACT Sports and the coaches were so approachable and willing to share all and any knowledge to the athletes and the parents. (line break) Our son is entering 10th grade and we were not aware of any such camps. He attended a showcase with the HS JV team last summer, but they did not share any information. He attended a college sponsored team camp the week before the EXACT Camp and there were only 5 college coaches that attended that camp. We were so happy with the EXACT's structure and all the opportunities that they give the athletes and parents to ask questions. We will attend another camp before our son graduates HS. Thank you!

Isaac Walker

Player

The best part about the Exact ID camp was the ability to have one-on-one conversation with 30+ college soccer coaches from all over the United States. These coaches were not only from different part of the country, but also coaches at different levels. They say a big part of getting recruited is building relationships with the coaches, and I believe this was a great way to get started! This camp gave us, athletes, the opportunity to learn the basics of college recruiting, the qualities the coaches looking for in a player, and overall get great tips from them.

Paris Royo

Parent

I brought my son to this camp not really knowing what to expect and was concerned about how young he was for the camp, since it appears designed around high school level players. I was surprised by the in-depth amount of information that EXACT provided us regarding how to prepare for the college recruitment process. Without a doubt, we would have missed out on the opportunity to know how the process works and the information you provided was insightful and we have confidence moving forward as our son moves into high school and college beyond.

Great job and we look forward to attending more EXACT camps, as well as introduce my younger son to the camps when the time is right. Thank you!

Benjamin Sumners

Player

I was surprised to see so many coaches, and having them available to talk to. I wish I would have known about EXACT Sports Elite Camp my junior year. I left feeling like I had personal attention from coaches, and got a better grip on how to navigate the college sports recruitment process.

Great experience meeting coaches, and having the discussion panel with coaches and parents. The games were fun and challenging, which I really enjoyed. Thanks EXACT!

Michael Battisti

Player

I loved the style of training and playing at the camp. They were open to changes with certain age restrictions and skill differences (as I am one of the younger athletes). Also, I loved how we were able to meet each coach privately, as well as during training. Lastly, the elevator pitch practice was unique and beneficial as it prepares me for the future.

Justin Gross

Player

I went to the first ID Camp in Philly. We were so encouraged that we attended this one in DC. I have always dreamed about 1) going to college and 2) playing soccer in college. I got to meet a lot of great coaches and athletes. I learned something new at each camp. I wish there were more camps close to me so we could attend more. I am a senior and need all the help I can get in hopes to find the right college. I loved how the coaches were there to help us and give us directions on the spot. My mentor Coach was Mike Eckberg. Towson is on my "dream" list - and we are now going to schedule a visit as he suggested. I am so excited and I know I still have a long road ahead, but every journey has a beginning. Even though I am getting started a little late, I feel like EXACT really has helped me come flying out of the gate!

Brenden Bryan

Player

This was a wonderful opportunity to meet coaches and other players in a completely different format. There is a chance to show individual skills that may not be seen in a regular soccer tournament environment. The interaction with coaches is outstanding and I really feel that I was able to get exposure from EXACT that I would not have anywhere else. Thanks for a great session and options to see so many coaches. I can't wait to see where this opportunity leads me!

Jacob Nelson

The camp provides you with an opportunity to meet, interact, and train with college coaches from different schools around the nation from different levels.
