BUIES CREEK, N.C. – Todd Clark has been named head women’s soccer coach at Campbell University, Director of Athletics Stan Williamson announced on Tuesday. Clark joins the Fighting Camel program from Malone College in Canton, Ohio, where he compiled an overall record of 102-33-13 as the Pioneers’ coach since 1999.
A four-time National Christian Colleges Athletic Association (NCCAA) East Region Coach of the Year, Clark replaces Matt Dillon, who resigned last week in order to accept the head coaching job at Lamar University, which is adding women’s soccer for the 2007 season.
“I’m excited to have the opportunity to coach at Campbell University,” said Clark. “There is a firm foundation in place and tremendous potential. Although we lost one very good senior from last year, there is a lot of experience in place. I look forward to coaching not only a talented team, but one with experience from the start. Furthermore, Campbell is the type of place where I can be successful on and off the field. The opportunity to coach in the environment of growth that Campbell has created athletically and academically is tremendous. It’s a great time to join the organization.”
Clark takes over a Campbell program that has posted a 31-18-10 (.610) record over the past three seasons. Sixteen letter winners, including 10 starters, return from last year’s team that compiled an 8-9-2 overall and 6-3-1 Atlantic Sun Conference record and advanced to the league tournament final for the second-consecutive season.
