E-Mail: bgoyings@kzoo.edu
Bryan Goyings was named head women's soccer coach on April 12, 2008.
In just his second season at the helm, Goyings led the Hornets to an 8-6-5 overall record (5-2-1 MIAA) in 2009, and the Hornets advanced to the MIAA Tournament Championship.
Goyings joined the Kalamazoo College women's soccer coaching staff in 2006, and was an integral part in the team’s success during his two seasons on staff. The Hornets finished third in the MIAA in 2007.
No stranger to Hornet soccer, Goyings was a four-year letter winner on the men's side (2000-03). He was a defender on three MIAA championship teams and two NCAA Division III tournament teams. Goyings scored four goals his senior season.
Following graduation from Kalamazoo College, Goyings became heavily involved as a coach in the local youth soccer scene, where his varying posts included time as the head junior varsity girls' coach at Wayland High School, the assistant boys' varsity coach at Plainwell High School, a staff coach for the Portage Lightning Soccer Club, and as a staff coach with the Kalamazoo Kingdom Reserves soccer club.
Originally from Jackson, Mich., Goyings is a graduate of Lumen Christi High School. He currently holds the highest licensing of any active collegiate soccer coach in the Kalamazoo area (of both men's and women's coaches), with a United States Soccer Federation (USSF) "A" License, a National Youth License, and a National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) Regional Goalkeeping Diploma. He resides in Kalamazoo.
“I am a strong believer in the Division III philosophy,” Goyings said. “As a student-athlete I had an extraordinary experience at Kalamazoo and want other students to have the same opportunities I had.” |
