Dan Ball enters his second year on the Bowling Green State University women's soccer staff, having helped the Falcons to one of the greatest seasons in program history in his initial year in Northwest Ohio. Ball, a native of Chatham, England, was hired in June of 2018 and, among other duties, works with the Falcons' goalkeepers.
"We are very excited to have Balley join our team," said BGSU head coach Matt Fannon at the time of Ball's hiring. "As a young goalkeeper coach he has already shown great success and growth in his abilities and will immediately challenge our 'keepers to improve. He is smart, ambitious and a winner, so will fit in well and help us all to grow. He is the perfect addition to our staff."
In Ball's first season with the program, BGSU won both the Mid-American Conference regular-season and tournament titles, tying the school record for overall wins and shattering the program mark for conference victories.
The 2018 Falcons went 14-5-3 overall and 10-1-0 in MAC regular-season play. BGSU captured the league regular-season crown for the second time in history, and won the league tournament title for the third time ever.
BGSU had a school-record five players named to the All-MAC First Team and the Ohio Collegiate Soccer Association All-Ohio First Team in 2018. That quintet included seniors Morgan Abbitt and Erica Hubert and juniors Kathleen Duwve, Maureen Kennedy and Chelsee Washington.
Those same five players all were named to the United Soccer Coaches All-Midwest Region Team. Hubert became the first player in BGSU history to be named to the all-region first team, while the other four Falcons were voted to the second team.
BG had those five all-region team members in 2018 after having a total of four in the first two-plus decades of the program.
In the classroom, still more records fell. BGSU had a school-record 12 student-athletes named to the Academic All-MAC Team in 2018, and four of those 12 student-athletes went on to be named MAC Distinguished Scholar-Athletes, tying for the highest total in the MAC. That group included Duwve, Kennedy, Washington and senior Elisa Baeron.
Three of those Falcons Duwve, Kennedy and Washington each were named to the USC Scholar All-Region Team, and Baeron was named an Academic All-American. Baeron was named to the 2018 Google Cloud Academic All-America Team, selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA).
Baeron, who earned third-team honors, became just the second CoSIDA Academic All-America selection in program history.
Kennedy and Washington had joined Baeron on the Academic All-District Team, before Baeron went on to earn national honors.
On the pitch, the Falcons rolled through the rest of the conference en route to the 2018 titles.
BGSU broke the school records for most home wins in a season and most consecutive victories at home. The Falcons went 10-1-2 at Cochrane Stadium in 2018, breaking the previous single-season record of eight home victories (8-1-1 in 2008).
The Falcons captured nine-straight matches at Cochrane, breaking the mark of seven set by that 2008 team. The winning streak was snapped in the MAC Tournament's championship match, but BGSU takes an 11-match home unbeaten streak (9-0-2) into the 2019 campaign.
BGSU started the 2018 season with a 1-3-2 record before ending the non-conference portion of the schedule with a dominant 6-0 win over Youngstown State. Then, the Brown and Orange steamrolled their way through the MAC schedule, going 10-1-0. The Falcons won the first eight league matches before falling, 1-0, at Akron. BG outshot the Zips, 25-7, in that match, hitting the crossbar with a pair of shots, but nevertheless saw an overall nine-match win streak come to an end.
The Falcons bounced back in a big way, posting a 5-0 win at Buffalo to clinch the conference regular-season title. Then, BGSU proceeded to end the 2018 season for four consecutive opponents.
The Orange and Brown topped arch-rival Toledo, 2-1, to end the regular season. That result knocked the Rockets out of the MAC Tournament race. BG then dispatched Eastern Michigan and Ohio in the league tourney, before tying Ball State, 1-1, in the MAC Tournament final. BG trailed the Cardinals during most of the penalty-kick phase, but rallied back to advance past BSU and capture the league tourney crown.
The Falcons scored two or more goals in a match on 12 occasions in 2018, including 10 times in the 14 matches vs. MAC foes. BG allowed as many as two goals only twice, in a 2-0 loss at then-No. 15 Northwestern and a 4-1 setback at Penn State in the NCAA Championships.
Following that Northwestern match on Sept. 9, BGSU never trailed at any point in any game until Akron scored with just 1:41 left in the teams' contest on Oct. 18. BG went a total of 1008:19 nearly 17 hours of match time without finding themselves behind on the scoreboard.
BGSU led the league in a veritable plethora of categories in 2018. In MAC play, BG paced the league in goals, assists, points, shots, shot percentage, fewest goals allowed, shutouts and lowest goals-against average.
The Falcons had 30 players on the 2018 roster. Hubert was named the MAC Offensive Player of the Year, while Kennedy took home MAC Defensive-Player-of-the-Year honors. Washington was named the United Soccer Coaches National Player of the Week on Sept. 25, and Abbitt and Duwve joined that trio on the All-MAC and all-region teams.
But, BG's success was the result of valuable contributions from a host of players on that 30-woman roster. Baeron was named MAC Tournament MVP after BGSU captured the title, and Nikki Cox, Nikhita Jacob and Jennifer Reyes joined Baeron on the MAC All-Tournament Team.
In 2018, BG scored 43 goals, tying the school record set the previous season. Four Falcons Hubert, Washington, Kennedy and Cox each had at least five goals and 19 points. Duwve was on a school-record pace for lowest GAA in a season prior to the NCAA Tournament match at PSU, and ended the year with a GAA of just 0.79.
Duwve had a miniscule GAA of 0.49 in MAC play, as she allowed only five goals in 927-plus minutes in league regular-season action, and had a saves percentage of .878. She led the MAC in GAA and saves pct., both overall and in MAC matches only.
Overall, Kennedy had 10 assists to tie Hubert for the team lead. The 2018 season marked the first time in program history that BG had two players with 10 assists each.
Ball joined Fannon's staff at BGSU after spending the previous two seasons at Concordia University in Seward, Neb. He served as graduate assistant goalkeeper coach for both the men's and women's program. Those two teams went a combined 57-18-8 over the last two seasons, as the men's team was 27-10-3 overall and 13-5 in Great Plains Athletic Conference (GPAC) play under head coach Jason Weides, while Greg Henson's women's program went 30-8-5 overall and 16-3-1 in the league in that span.
At Concordia, Ball helped sophomore 'keeper Lindsey Carley earn GPAC Defensive Player of the Year accolades along with first-team all-league and all-region honors as the Bulldogs won the league title with a 9-0-1 record. During Ball's two seasons at the school, a total of four different goalkeepers in the two programs earned all-conference honors.
The women's program captured the 2017 league regular-season title after winning the conference tournament the previous year. The '17 women's team set program records for fewest goals conceded and most clean sheets. The coaching staff was named United Soccer Plains Region College Staff of the Year last fall.
The men's team set a school single-season record for wins in '17, going 16-3-1. Goalkeeper Jack Bennett, one of those four 'keepers to earn All-GPAC honors during Ball's tenure, ranked in the top 20 among all NAIA goalkeepers in goals-against average a year ago.
"I couldn't be more excited to start at BGSU," said Ball at the time of his hiring. "The opportunity to coach and be challenged at the Division-I level is one I'm incredibly grateful for. Coach Fannon has done great things in his short time at BG and the staff is young and hungry for success, as is our team. Both Matt and (assistant coach) Cian (McDonald) have been incredible in welcoming me and I'm looking forward to learning from them both."
A graduate of Milligan College in Johnson City, Tenn., Ball served as an assistant women's soccer coach at his alma mater from July of 2015 to May of 2016.

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 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!!!!!!!
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!
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 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.
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
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 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.
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.
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 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
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 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.
