Thirteen players were given Big Sky All-Academic honors. Jordan also became the Berras first National Womens Soccer League (NWSL) draftee, going in the fourth round to the Chicago Red Stars.

The Bears finished the season with an 8-7-5 (4-1-2 Big Sky) record and tied with Portland State for the best conference record in the Big Sky. Since the Bears defeated Portland State earlier in the year, they earned the right to host their first Big Sky Women's Soccer Championship. Eventually, Barrera saw his team's season end in a penalty-kicks loss to Montana in the tournament semifinals. Barrera's 2010 campaign was a success, as he led the Bears to a 10-6-3 overall mark and a fourth-place finish in the Big Sky.

Eastern New Mexico
Division 2
Joshua Smith is entering his second season as the ENMU Head Women's Soccer Coach for the 2019 season.
In his first season with the Greyhounds in 2018, Smith led the Hounds to one of their most successful seasons in program history as the team went 9-9-2 (5-6-1 Lone Star Conference) and advanced to the first LSC Championship game in the program's 16-year history. Under Smith's tutelage, the squad allowed the third-fewest goals per game (1.15) in the LSC and set a program-record for fewest shots per game allowed in a season (11.4) while the nine wins marked the second-most wins in a single season in the program's history.
Coming off the program's first LSC Tournament in 2017, the Hounds advanced even further under Smith's guidance. In the LSC Quarterfinal match at Texas A&M-Commerce, Eastern came away with a 2-0 win off a pair of goals from sophomore forward Keyara Zuniga to advance to the LSC Semifinal at top-seeded and nationally 19th-ranked West Texas A&M. In that match, the Hounds forced a scoreless draw at the end of regulation, but in the 93rd minute of overtime, Anahi Hernandez found an open Julia Tucker in the middle of the goal box and she scored the golden goal to send the Greyhounds to their first ever Lone Star Conference Championship match.
In his first season, Smith had five players earn All-LSC accolades, including Samantha Fabela (First Team), Bailey Bosley (Second Team, LSC Newcomer of the Year), Hayden Zuniga (Second Team), Keyara Zuniga (Honorable Mention), and Caitlyn Schmidt (All-Academic Team). For the first time in program history, Smith also had three players make the LSC All-Tournament Team with Keyara Zuniga, Hayden Zuniga, and Julie Tucker making the list.
Previously, Smith spent two seasons at the University of the Southwest in Hobbs, N.M before coming to Portales.
Smith amassed a 16-15-2 record in two seasons of leading the Mustangs. In the fall of 2017, he led the women's team a stellar 13-4 record, which was the second-best record in program history. His squad was 8-3 in conference play which was the best mark in school history. For the season his team outscored opponents a combined 69-4 and finished the year just four points shy of a conference championship.
A big part of Smith's success in 2017 came from his recruiting class, where he signed 34 athletes to rebuild Southwest's program. The recruiting paid off on the field and off as well. His team finished the year with a cumulative GPA of 3.21.
Prior to the University of the Southwest, Smith was at Northern Oklahoma College-Tonkawa. Smith went 36-5-2 during his two seasons and won a pair of Region 2 Tournament championships. The season prior to his arrival the team had won eight games the season before. After leading the team to a 19-3-1 record and a No. 15 ranking in the NJCAA in his first season, Smith guided the Mavericks to a 17-2-1 record in 2015, a No. 8 ranking in the NJCAA Division II polls and an Oklahoma Collegiate Athletic Conference regular-season championship along with the Region 2 Tournament championship. Smith was also named the OCAC/Region 2 Coach of the Year in 2015.
During Smith's time at NOC-Tonkawa, he had three players named to the NJCAA All-American Team, six players named First Team All-Region 2, seven players named First Team All-OCAC and four players earn NJCAA Player of the Week honors.
Smith's team also showed great improvement in the classroom as NOC-Tonkawa's grade point average went from 2.50 the year before Smith arrived to a 3.35 GPA in his last season. His teams were also active in fundraising, helping raise more than $30,000 for the program in less than two years.
Before leading NOC-Tonkawa, Smith was the head girls' soccer coach at Crandall High School in Texas for two seasons. In his second season he improved the team from 11-10-2 to 17-5-2 and guided the 3A program to a third-place finish in a 4A district. He finished as runner-up district coach of the year both seasons and increased the participation in the program from 15 to 52 girls in two years making it possible to develop a junior varsity program. He also served as the school's head cross country coach for both the boys and girls.
During his time at Crandall High, he also was the goalkeeper coach for Cedar Valley College for the 2013 season.
Smith received his bachelor's degree in Communications from Grove City College in Grove City, Pennsylvania, in 2009 and his master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction from the University of Mississippi in 2011.

The Lumberjacks set or tied 16 school and stadium records and broke two Big Sky Conference records for assists in a game (14) and points (32).

Odorfer broke school records for points in a season (28), career assist (18), and game-winning goals (13). Also in 2008, Luciano tutored freshman Jenna Samora to Big Sky Newcomer of the Year honors.
In 2007, goalkeeper Elizabeth Winkelblech received the NSCAA/adidas Scholar Athlete Award for excellence as a student-athlete. Under Lucianos guidance, Winkelblech set six combined school records and finished in the top five in seven other statistical categories in her first year as a full-time starter. The Lumberjacks earned the best record in school history to date with a 7-7-5 overall mark, a winning percentage of .500. All five ties were 0-0 finishes which set an NCAA Division I Womens Soccer record for most 0-0 ties in a single season. NAU opened the year with a 5-2-3 record, the best start to a season through 10 matches in school history.
During the 2006 season, Luciano led NAU to a 7-10-1 record finishing sixth in the Big Sky Conference. The Lumberjacks placed nine players on the All-Big Sky All-Conference team, with three student-athletes earning first team honors. Six other Lumberjacks were recognized as All-Big Sky honorable mention. In addition to the brilliant performances on the field by Lumberjacks, Luciano mentored 10 players to All-Big Sky All-Academic recognition.

NAU went 4-2-0 in conference play, tying Lucianos best finish in the Big Sky while at NAU prior to the 2008 season in which the Lumberjacks were 4-1-2 in the Big Sky. The women played to a second-place finish at the Big Sky Conference Championships and posted a number of offensive records including most goals, assists and points in a season. The postseason berth marked Lucianos second appearance in the Big Sky tournament and his first showing in the finals.

During the 2004 campaign, Luciano earned two impressive non-conference wins against Illinois State (1-0) and Western Illinois (1-0, OT) out of the Missouri Valley Conference and Summit League, respectively. The Lumberjacks finished 5-11-2, but could easily have gained several more victories as three matches went to double overtime.

Division 1
Barrera enters 2016 with a 220-188-34 record in his 23rd career as a head coach, and bolsters a 159-143-32 record at the helm of UNC. He has more than doubled the previous Northern Colorado record for wins by a soccer head coach and now has more wins than the rest of the UNC soccer coaches combined. In 2015, Barrera led the Bears to a 13-8-2 overall record, 7-2-1 mark in conference and a Big Sky Championship title after defeating the University of Idaho in penalty kicks. Barreras first conference title earned the Bears a NCAA tournament berth, where they faced the PAC-12s Arizona Wildcats. Barreras talented squad didnt go unnoticed last season. In total, five UNC players collected post-season honor. Madeline Chase and Kassy Castillo made the NSCAA All-West Region team, and both picked up Big Sky Conference awards along with Adrienne Jordan, Mariel Gutierrez and Brooke Braden. Thirteen players were given Big Sky All-Academic honors. Jordan also became the Berras first National Womens Soccer League (NWSL) draftee, going in the fourth round to the Chicago Red Stars. She has since signed to play with Swedens Ostersund. In his 18th season leading the Bears, he is the longest-tenured head coach at Northern Colorado. Barrera and the Bears made a trip back to the Big Sky Championships for the fourth time in 2014 after finishing with a 5-2-2 record in conference play in 2015. No team was able to come into Greeley and leave with a win, as the Bears finished 4-0-3 at Jackson Stadium. The team also was recognized for the fourth straight year for academic performance by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America. After the 2014 campaign, seven student-athletes were honored to the Big Sky All-Conference team while Natalie D'Adamio earned Co-Goalkeeper of the Year, her second consecutive award. Thirteen were also named to the Big Sky All-Academic team. Following a banner 2011 season, Barreras team got off to a strong start in 2012, going 3-0 to open Big Sky Conference play and earning a ranking in a national poll before falling shy of qualifying for the conference tournament via a fourth-place tiebreaker with Weber State. The Big Sky recognized eight members of the team to the All-Conference teams that year, including DAdamio, who was named Goalkeeper of the Year. Twelve soccer student-athletes were named to the Big Skys All-Academic team. Led by a number of gifted seniors, 2011 was one of Barrera's best with the Bears as he helped lead Northern Colorado to a share of its first Big Sky Conference Soccer championship. The Bears finished the season with an 8-7-5 (4-1-2 Big Sky) record and tied with Portland State for the best conference record in the Big Sky. Since the Bears defeated Portland State earlier in the year, they earned the right to host their first Big Sky Women's Soccer Championship. Eventually, Barrera saw his team's season end in a penalty-kicks loss to Montana in the tournament semifinals. Barrera's 2010 campaign was a success, as he led the Bears to a 10-6-3 overall mark and a fourth-place finish in the Big Sky. The team qualified for its second trip to the Big Sky Conference Tournament after the season. In 2009, coach Barrera led his young team to a 6-10-1 overall mark while finishing in a tie for sixth place in the conference. The season was marked by the coming-out of sophomore sensation, Ariel Cook, who became the Bears' leading scorer. In his tenth season with the Bears, Barrera led his squad to a 7-13-0 overall record. The team struggled to compete on the road, but finished the season with a 6-4 mark at home. Barrera's team finished in seventh place in the Big Sky with a 2-5-0 record. In 2008, Barrera, who led the Bears to back-to-back NCAA Tournaments at the Division II level, helped Northern Colorado through the reclassification process, which the athletic department completed prior to the 2007 school year. To go along with his most recent Big Sky championship, Barrera has also led Northern Colorado to a pair of North Central Conference Championships (1999 and 2001) and a pair of Division II NCAA Tournament berths (2001 and 2002). His squads have also won six NSCAA (National Soccer Coaches Association of America) Team Academic awards, four NSCAA Team Ethics awards, set or tied 15 school records and won 13 or more games four times. In his first year at the helm of the Bears' program in 1999, Barrera was named NCC coach of the year for his efforts. In 2007, Barrera led the Bears to the Big Sky Conference Championship game in their first year of postseason eligibility since the reclassification . It was the first time in school history that any sport had accomplished such a feat. In total, Barrera has coached 13 all-region and 52 all-conference selections at Northern Colorado. Barrera helped Northern Colorado's Mandy Nilsen become a two-time All-American in 1999 and 2001. She was the only Division II athlete to make the NSCAA/adidas All-American Scholar first-team, and she graduated from Northern Colorado holding virtually every Bears scoring record. Before joining the Northern Colorado staff, Barrera served as head coach at Elmira College in Elmira, N.Y. In five years there, he led the Soaring Eagles to five consecutive winning seasons, posting a 58-31-3 (.647) record overall. During Barrera's tenure, Elmira earned its first NCAA and Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference (ECAC) postseason appearances (1997 and 1998). In the process, Barrera produced six NSCAA Regional All-American performers and six NSCAA All-Academic Scholars, while his squads received team academic and ethics awards from the NSCAA in 1997 and 1998. While at Elmira, Barrera was also active in the governance of collegiate women's soccer, as he served as the chairman of the New York State Women's Collegiate Athletics Association (NYSWCAA) Soccer Committee. He was also a member of the New York Regional Ranking Committee. Prior to arriving at Elmira, Barrera spent one year (1993) as head women's coach at Wilkes University in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., one year as director of player development at the Northeast Attack Soccer Club (in Wilkes-Barre) and one year as a student assistant coach at Virginia Tech.

Tim Barrera
Head Soccer Coach
Tim Barrera enters 2016 with a 220-188-34 record in his 23rd career as a head coach, and bolsters a 159-143-32 record at the helm of UNC. He has more than doubled the previous Northern Colorado record for wins by a soccer head coach and now has more wins than the rest of the UNC soccer coaches combined. In 2015, Barrera led the Bears to a 13-8-2 overall record, 7-2-1 mark in conference and a Big Sky Championship title after defeating the University of Idaho in penalty kicks. Barreras first conference title earned the Bears a NCAA tournament berth, where they faced the PAC-12s Arizona Wildcats. Barreras talented squad didnt go unnoticed last season. In total, five UNC players collected post-season honor. Madeline Chase and Kassy Castillo made the NSCAA All-West Region team, and both picked up Big Sky Conference awards along with Adrienne Jordan, Mariel Gutierrez and Brooke Braden. Thirteen players were given Big Sky All-Academic honors. Jordan also became the Berras first National Womens Soccer League (NWSL) draftee, going in the fourth round to the Chicago Red Stars. She has since signed to play with Swedens Ostersund. In his 18th season leading the Bears, he is the longest-tenured head coach at Northern Colorado. Barrera and the Bears made a trip back to the Big Sky Championships for the fourth time in 2014 after finishing with a 5-2-2 record in conference play in 2015. No team was able to come into Greeley and leave with a win, as the Bears finished 4-0-3 at Jackson Stadium. The team also was recognized for the fourth straight year for academic performance by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America. After the 2014 campaign, seven student-athletes were honored to the Big Sky All-Conference team while Natalie D'Adamio earned Co-Goalkeeper of the Year, her second consecutive award. Thirteen were also named to the Big Sky All-Academic team. Following a banner 2011 season, Barreras team got off to a strong start in 2012, going 3-0 to open Big Sky Conference play and earning a ranking in a national poll before falling shy of qualifying for the conference tournament via a fourth-place tiebreaker with Weber State. The Big Sky recognized eight members of the team to the All-Conference teams that year, including DAdamio, who was named Goalkeeper of the Year. Twelve soccer student-athletes were named to the Big Skys All-Academic team. Led by a number of gifted seniors, 2011 was one of Barrera's best with the Bears as he helped lead Northern Colorado to a share of its first Big Sky Conference Soccer championship. The Bears finished the season with an 8-7-5 (4-1-2 Big Sky) record and tied with Portland State for the best conference record in the Big Sky. Since the Bears defeated Portland State earlier in the year, they earned the right to host their first Big Sky Women's Soccer Championship. Eventually, Barrera saw his team's season end in a penalty-kicks loss to Montana in the tournament semifinals. Barrera's 2010 campaign was a success, as he led the Bears to a 10-6-3 overall mark and a fourth-place finish in the Big Sky. The team qualified for its second trip to the Big Sky Conference Tournament after the season. In 2009, coach Barrera led his young team to a 6-10-1 overall mark while finishing in a tie for sixth place in the conference. The season was marked by the coming-out of sophomore sensation, Ariel Cook, who became the Bears' leading scorer. In his tenth season with the Bears, Barrera led his squad to a 7-13-0 overall record. The team struggled to compete on the road, but finished the season with a 6-4 mark at home. Barrera's team finished in seventh place in the Big Sky with a 2-5-0 record. In 2008, Barrera, who led the Bears to back-to-back NCAA Tournaments at the Division II level, helped Northern Colorado through the reclassification process, which the athletic department completed prior to the 2007 school year. To go along with his most recent Big Sky championship, Barrera has also led Northern Colorado to a pair of North Central Conference Championships (1999 and 2001) and a pair of Division II NCAA Tournament berths (2001 and 2002). His squads have also won six NSCAA (National Soccer Coaches Association of America) Team Academic awards, four NSCAA Team Ethics awards, set or tied 15 school records and won 13 or more games four times. In his first year at the helm of the Bears' program in 1999, Barrera was named NCC coach of the year for his efforts. In 2007, Barrera led the Bears to the Big Sky Conference Championship game in their first year of postseason eligibility since the reclassification . It was the first time in school history that any sport had accomplished such a feat. In total, Barrera has coached 13 all-region and 52 all-conference selections at Northern Colorado. Barrera helped Northern Colorado's Mandy Nilsen become a two-time All-American in 1999 and 2001. She was the only Division II athlete to make the NSCAA/adidas All-American Scholar first-team, and she graduated from Northern Colorado holding virtually every Bears scoring record. Before joining the Northern Colorado staff, Barrera served as head coach at Elmira College in Elmira, N.Y. In five years there, he led the Soaring Eagles to five consecutive winning seasons, posting a 58-31-3 (.647) record overall. During Barrera's tenure, Elmira earned its first NCAA and Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference (ECAC) postseason appearances (1997 and 1998). In the process, Barrera produced six NSCAA Regional All-American performers and six NSCAA All-Academic Scholars, while his squads received team academic and ethics awards from the NSCAA in 1997 and 1998. While at Elmira, Barrera was also active in the governance of collegiate women's soccer, as he served as the chairman of the New York State Women's Collegiate Athletics Association (NYSWCAA) Soccer Committee. He was also a member of the New York Regional Ranking Committee. Prior to arriving at Elmira, Barrera spent one year (1993) as head women's coach at Wilkes University in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., one year as director of player development at the Northeast Attack Soccer Club (in Wilkes-Barre) and one year as a student assistant coach at Virginia Tech. He holds a B License from the United States Soccer Federation (USSF) and a premier diploma from the NSCAA. Barrera earned his bachelor's degree from Virginia Tech in 1986 and his master's degree from Elmira College in 1998. While at Virginia Tech, he was a four-year starter (1981-84) and graduated as the program's all-time leading scorer with 19 goals.

Player
I loved that I was able to communicate and work with a variety of different coaches. It was an eye opening experience and I was surprised how sociable I was with the other girls at the camp, because I am usually shy and don't want to talk to people. Thank you and two thumbs up to you for getting me out of my shell.
Player
The staff, the players, and the coaches that were apart of this camp were such genuine and caring people that I really felt welcome when I stepped on the field. Also, it was just a really fun experience where I had the chance to interact with fellow soccer lovers and I learned so much. I have to give it 10 out of 10 soccer balls.
This is one of the first times I've had the opportunity to interact so closely with college coaches and it really opened up my eyes not only to the opportunities that are available to me, but also the personalities of these coaches. They truly care about the improvement and development of their players and it's so wonderful spending time with such professional and involved people.
Parent
My daughter had a great time. The coaches were professional and very approachable. The question and answer panel with the coaches was informative. There was more interaction between the players and coaches than I expected from attending other "camps". The coaches really made an effort to be available when not on the field. I would highly recommend this experience to others. Soccer players can never get enough exposure for a reasonable price, nor can they gain enough experience playing with girls that are unknown to them.
Player
I loved the environment of the EXACT camp. It's so different from other camps because it takes into account the mental aspect of the game instead of just the physical aspect. The environment was friendly and welcome, and this camp gave me a giant boost of confidence whether for striking up a conversation with a college coach or just on the field. It was very informative and I feel like I'm on the right track for being recruited at a college that is the right fit for me. Thank you!
Parent
I was impressed with the overall flow and their ability to adapt to adverse scheduling conflicts from the facility. This is a great opportunity for my daughter to see beyond the club and school soccer, and the annoying reminding from us. It helps keep her motivated and going in the direction she wants to go with this sport. We'll definitely return to future camps. I as a parent was able to network with parents of older girls as well which helps me greatly in the posit of my daughters goals.
Player
I was very satisfied with the program and how it was run. Being new to these types of experiences and camps, I was happy to see how the staff was kind and helpful to all the athletes. I know that in the future if an opportunity like this swings around the corner I will have no trouble snatching it. I had an amazing time at this camp and hope it happens again. Thank you to all for hosting it. Also having celebrity's host a camp like this one makes it very special to a lot of the athletes.
Player
EXACT is a very good way to promote yourself if you are wanting to play at the next level. The most inspiring thing about EXACT is that they want everyone to believe in themselves, which goes a long way when you are trying to be your best.
The camp was very well run, and it is essential that everyone try to go to at least one EXACT camp while they still have the opportunity.
Player
My EXACT camp experience was great. It was a wonderful learning experience in the perfect environment. The coaches and the EXACT staff made sure we focused on not only our skills and abilities that are crucial, but they also really focused on mental aspect of the game as well and I really enjoyed that.
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!
Player
I had a great experience at the Chicago EXACT Soccer Camp. The one-on-one conversations with coaches was invaluable as was the overall coaching I received during training and games throughout the weekend. I plan to be back next year! On a side note please share with your staff how great they were when I went down with an injury on Sunday...torn ACL and surgery in my very near future, but having had the opportunity to showcase myself and meet the coaches and staff was the best experience I have ever had at any camp so far and I WILL be back next year.
Player
I was actually so nervous going into the camp, but once I got the to camp all of my nervousness went away. The coaches were all very nice and the camp was a comfortable place with everyone being very supportive. Not only was it enjoyable, I was able to talk to the coaches one-on-one, and get honest and thoughtful feedback to improve my athletic abilities and talents.
Before attending the EXACT Camp, I was very uneducated about college soccer and didn't have a set school I was interested in, but this camp helped me have a better understanding of what to look for in the future.
Player
I really appreciated the atmosphere that EXACT Sports Elite Camp provided. Everyone was included in any drill or game we were doing. It was an awesome experience to meet girls I've never seen before early in the morning, practice drills and techniques with them, and play with them/against them later in the same day. It is very different than practicing with the same team every day, every year. It was an experience to go out on a field with complete strangers and interact with them on the field. I also loved the number of college coaches who were at the camp. Especially at my young age, I haven't yet focused on one or two schools yet, so having a wide variety coaches from different schools and levels was exactly what I needed and was looking for.
Player
I have been playing soccer since I was five years old. I am now 13 years old and I continue to love playing soccer, but lately I have been struggling. I had lost confidence in myself and I was always afraid to make mistakes which as a result I stopped taking risks and challenging myself. But, after attending EXACT Camp for just one day I was able to learn a lot of things. I learned that it is OK to take risks and just because I am a smaller player than other athletes does not mean I am not a strong player. EXACT Sports helped me get my confidence back and to be a more vocal player. I learned valuable lessons that I can take with me on and off the field. I learned so much in just one day. I wish the camp was all week long. Thank you again!
P.S. I already started looking into colleges.
Player
EXACT offers a great experience that blends on field training in a college atmosphere with off field soft skills needed to help become a better candidate for recruitment. The coaches provide excellent, real world feedback to parents and athletes on what and what not to do. Overall its a great experience that provides insight that will serve the players and the parents well during the recruiting period.
Player
The EXACT Camp was really informative and challenging. The coaches were very honest and gave me some really good information and tips, which I really enjoyed it.
Overall, it was an excellent camp experience, wish I lived in America to visit more ID camps, coaches gave me much more coaching and training then my own coaches, so it was good to see that I can pick it up a bit to improve my overall performances. I have gone MENTALLLLL!!!!!!!
