Denver
Division 1
DENVER The University of Denver men's soccer team has named former Pioneer goalkeeper [Dan Jackson](https://denverpioneers.com/staff.aspxstaff=368) its volunteer assistant ahead of the 2019 season, head coach [Jamie Franks](https://denverpioneers.com/coaches.aspxrc=203) announced on Wednesday.
"I couldn't be more excited to add [Dan Jackson](https://denverpioneers.com/staff.aspxstaff=368) to our staff," Franks said. "He was a leader here as a student-athlete, anchoring the back for us in our first undefeated season. He's a great fit for our staff as his focus is on the development of the person first and he can really connect with our team. Every student-athlete that comes through our locker room is trying to leave this program better than how they found it. Dan did that as a player, and is now returning to the program in a new role with the desire to lead us to our goal of winning a National Championship."
Following four years at UNC Asheville, including a redshirt season in 2011, Jackson arrived on the Denver campus in 2015, leading the Pioneers to their first of back-to-back unbeaten regular seasons. Jackson allowed just eight goals in 2015 for 0.40 goals against average, making 40 saves en-route to 12 clean sheets and a 15-1-3 record.
"The way the program has progressed throughout the years has been inspiring - even since I played in Jamie's inaugural season as a head coach back in 2015," Jackson said. "The student-athletes, coaching staff and support staff are so granular in their approach with everything that they do, on and off the field, that I had to come back and be a small piece. The University of Denver is a special place for me as it has provided me with an outstanding education and an unforgettable student-athlete experience. However, the biggest take away was how important the culture is within an organization and the emphasis on having good character - whether that be amongst teammates or coworkers. I am excited to contribute in any way that I can."
Jackson's goals against average in 2015 was good for third in the country in that category, while he also finished 10th in save percentage (0.833).
Following the 2015 campaign, Jackson finished his second year of his MS in marketing at the University of Denver, while serving as the program's graduate assistant coach. Jackson also signed a professional contract to play for the [USL's Colorado Switchbacks FC](https://gazette.com/sports/switchbacks-dan-jackson-overcomes-odds-en-route-to-pro-career/article_faac621f-c947-5b41-ac91-a86f78dae6ac.html).

Henry got his first taste of the MVC with SIUE, spending two seasons as the Cougars' Director of Operations. During his time in Edwardsville, the Cougars went 21-15-4 while making an appearance in the MVC Championship Match in 2012.
"I think one of the things that made me feel comfortable bringing Ian is a level of familiarity," said Duncan. "Knowing Ian, seeing the work that he did at what is a very competitive program at Evansville, made it very easy to make the offer. The process that Evansville went through while Ian was there is quite similar to the process we've gone through here; transforming a program that was going through some struggles to one that is competing for conference championships."
"I think this is an exciting program," said Henry of the Bears. "Seeing what Ross has done over the last number of years while I was at Evansville, and where the program has come to and the momentum is has, is definitely something that I was interested in jumping on board with."
"My goal is to help the program get better every day," said Henry. "Hopefully I can add a different perspective for the team and for the opponents in the conference as well."

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!
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!

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!

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.
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.

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
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.
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!

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.

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.

EXACT Sports provides you with insights into improving your chance of being seen and recruited by college coaches. It was one of the best decisions I made in my recruiting process.

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!!!

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.
