In three seasons, Longino has helped the program to 30 victories, two NCAA Tournament appearances and the first Big Ten title in school history.

During the 2020 season, Longino helped the team to its second straight NCAA Tournament berth.  After starting the season slowly, the Hawkeyes were playing their best soccer when matter most in the postseason.

With an expanded Big Ten postseason schedule due to league-only scheduling because of COVID, the Hawkeyes posted wins over second-seeded Illinois and third-seeded Minnesota in the Big Ten Regional weekend.  The team followed with a road win at top-seeded Penn State in the Big Ten Tournament semifinals before downing third-seeded Wisconsin to claim the programs first-ever Big Ten title.

The win in Happy Valley was the first for the program in school history and the fourth-ranked Nittany Lions were the highest ranked opponent Iowa defeated all-time.  Two freshmen forward Meike Ingles and goalkeeper Macy Enneking were named the Big Ten Tournament Most Outstanding Offensive and Defensive Players, respectively.  Ingles scored three-game winners in the tournament, while Enneking posted two shutouts and made 14 saves.

As a result, the Hawkeyes earned their second straight NCAA Tournament berth, and they continued to make history.  Shipped to North Carolina, Iowa tallied a 1-0 victory over Campbell on the Camels home turf to notch the first NCAA Tournament win in the record books.  Iowa had third-seeded UCLA on the ropes in the Round of 32 before surrendering two goals late in a 2-1 defeat.

Iowa finished the season with a 7-9-1 record, but all seven of the victories came in the teams final 10 games.  Enneking was a unanimous Big Ten All-Freshman team honoree. Academically, Iowa matched a school record with 19 Academic All-Big Ten selections, eight Hawkeyes were Big Ten Distinguished Scholars, the program had 31 Deans List honorees (in fall and spring semesters), and the program earned the United Soccer Team Academic Award, posting a 3.49 team grade point average.

During the 2019 season, Longino helped guide Iowa to one of the best seasons in program history.  The Hawkeyes opened the season with nine straight wins en route to a No. 17 national ranking, the highest in program history.  Iowa tied a school record, winning 15 games, including seven in Big Ten play, and advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the second time in program history.

The Hawkeyes tied a school record with three All-Big Ten selections and senior Natalie Winters became the first player in program history to earn postseason recognition in all four seasons.  Winters was also an all-region honoree for the second straight season.

Iowa was one of the Big Tens most potent offenses, ranking second in the league and 26th nationally.  The Hawkeyes had an NCAA-best 16 different goal scorers in 2019.  Defensively, Iowa posted eight shutouts and limited opponents to seven or fewer shots in 13 games.

The Hawkeyes shined academically as Iowa was the only school in the country to have two first-team Academic All-Americans.  Iowa also had three United Soccer Academic All-Region and a school-record 19 Academic All-Big Ten selections.

During her first season in Iowa City, Longino helped the Hawkeyes to an 8-7-3 overall record and a 4-5-2 mark in Big Ten play.  Iowa was in Big Ten Tournament contention until the final game, but fell short after battling Northwestern to a 1-1 draw.  Junior Natalie Winters was a third-team all-region and third-team All-Big Ten selection Iowas first all-region honoree since 2014.

In the classroom, Iowa earned the United Soccer Team Academic Award for a 12th straight season and the Hawkeyes had two Google Cloud Academic All-Americans the first two in program history.  Kaleigh Haus was a first-team selection; Hannah Drkulec earned second-team honors.  Iowa also had 10 players earn Academic All-Big Ten honors, 25 players with a 3.0 GPA or better, 14 Deans List, and four Presidents List honorees during the spring semester.

Longino played as a freshman at Columbus State, helping the team to 18 wins and a berth in the NCAA Division II Sweet 16.  From there, she transitioned into coaching, serving as a student assistant for two seasons, helping guide CSU to a 21-1-1 record and an Elite Eight appearance in 2014.

In her final year at Columbus State, Longino served as an intern in the athletics department, working directly with womens soccer as the team won 22 matches and reached the national championship match.

The 2014 Horizon League Coach of the Year and a member of the 2022 MVC Coaching Staff of the Year, he enters his 18th season at the helm of Valpo in the fall of 2025.

Marovich enters the fall 2025 campaign with a record of 136-131-49 both overall as a collegiate head coach and at Valpo. He holds Valpo's all-time records for victories and winning percentage (.508).

In the fall of 2023, Marovich guided the women's soccer program to the first MVC team tournament title by any Valpo program since joining the Valley, leading the way as the Beacons posted four consecutive 1-0 victories - including wins over each of the tournament's top three seeds - to claim the crown and advance to the NCAA Tournament for the third time in program history. The 2023 squad, which finished with 11 victories - tied for fourth-most in a single season in program history, featured six players who earned postseason recognition in the form of MVC awards, highlighted by Nicole Norfolk repeating as a First Team All-MVC and All-Region honoree and earning Third Team Scholar All-America distinction.

Marovich led the Beacons to improved marks in the MVC standings four straight seasons from 2019 through 2022, culminating in the fall of 2022 with the program's first MVC regular season championship. Valpo posted a 7-1-2 record in Valley play to earn the regular season crown, while finishing at 8-7-4 overall.

Nikki Coryell repeated as MVC Goalkeeper of the Year and was joined on the All-MVC First Team by Kelsie James, and the duo were joined by Kiley Dugan as United Soccer Coaches All-Region selections as well.

The spring 2021 season saw Marovich lead Valpo to a strong turnaround. Valpo posted a 5-4-5 overall record and was 3-2-3 in MVC regular season play, earning a third-place finish in the regular season standings - the program's best at that point since joining the Valley. Along the way, Marovich became the first coach in program history to reach the 100-win mark on the sidelines at Valpo, doing so with a March 9 win over Indiana State.

The Brown and Gold went on to advance to the MVC Tournament championship match for the first time in program history.

Led by the efforts of First Team All-MVC and Third Team All-Region honoree Cory Griffith, the 2017 side finished the season 57 spots higher in the RPI than the 2016 squad. Marovich also coached the program's fourth CoSIDA First Team Academic All-American all-time, as senior Grace Rogers earned the honor.

Marovich led Valpo to nine victories in 2016, as he surpassed former head coach Stephen Anthony for the program's all-time wins record. Marovich matched Anthony's mark of 78 wins with a victory over Morehead State on Sept. 18, and then two matches later, broke the record with a victory against Milwaukee Sept. 28.

Along the way, the side swept through Horizon League play with a perfect 8-0-0 record - only the third side in league history to go 8-0-0.
