Keith Coleman Last College: Cal Poly (1991) Position: Head Coach Experience: 15th Season Record: 128-110-28 (entering 2008)

Keith Coleman begins his 15th season at the helm of the Pacific women's soccer program during which he has posted a career record of 128-110-28.

For the 12th time in 14 seasons, the Tigers finished their regular season with a .500 or better record, having finished 2007 at 7-7-4 on the year. A favorite to compete for the Big West title at the beginning of the year, the Tigers struggled to find their way in 2007, starting strong before injuries and the tough play of the Big West caught up with the team. In conference action, the Tigers posted a 2-4-2 record despite finishing the year with one of the conference's top defenses, allowing just 0.89 goals against throughout the year.

With a veteran team, anchored by four four-year seniors and nine juniors, the 2006 Tigers finished the season with a 10-6-2 overall record. Pacific set single-season records for consecutive shutouts with six as the defense relinquished just 14 goals against, shattering the previous best of 19 goals against set in 1999.

In 2005 the Tigers went 10-9-1 during the regular season. Additionally, Coleman led his Tigers to the postseason for the first time since 1998, earning a spot in the Big West Championships. The Tigers played tough, but a late goal sent Pacific to a 1-0 defeat to the eventual Big West Champions, Cal State Fullerton.

The 2004 season witnessed the Tigers' coach reach the century milestone in career wins as he guided the Tigers to his 100th victory with a 2-1 win at UC Irvine on Oct. 10. Additionally, Coleman led the Tigers to some big program victories as Pacific picked up road wins over Nebraska (2-1, Sept. 10) and UC Santa Barbara (1-0, Oct. 22).

In 2002, Pacific completed its season with an overall record of 10-8-2 and 2-5-2 in Big West Conference action. Under his guidance, the Tigers produced five All-Big West players, including Big West Goalkeeper of the Year, Megan Pickering.

In 1998, Coleman guided Pacific to its first Big West Conference Championship and first appearance in the NCAA Women's Soccer Tournament. He earned Big West Coach of the Year honors for the second consecutive season, after becoming the first coach in Big West soccer history to post an undefeated conference record (7-0-2). With a 2-1 win over California during the first round of the NCAA Tournament, Coleman set a school record with 15 wins during the season.

In 1997, Coleman was named Co-Big West Coach of the Year, following an outstanding season in which he led Pacific to an overall record of 14-6, including a win over nationally-ranked BYU (No. 19). He also led the Tigers to a 4-2 record in Big West Conference games during the season, finishing tied for second place in the Big West standings.

Coleman posted a 7-1 season at home in 1995, which helped Pacific to post its first winning season in school history. The Tigers finished 9-8-2 overall that season.

Before joining Pacific in 1994, Coleman was an assistant coach under Bob Russ at Chico State. He helped coach the Wildcats to victories in 30 of 37 games in his two seasons with Chico. He helped guide Chico State to its first regional championship and an appearance in the NCAA Division II playoffs, as the team advanced to the final six in 1992. During his stint as a coach for the Wildcats, Chico State ranked as high as fifth in the nation and No. 1 in the region.

Prior to his tenure at Chico State, Coleman spent four years as head coach of the women's club soccer program at Cal Poly, where his teams captured four state titles including the 1991 Women's College Cup National Championship. Coleman compiled an overall record of 102-6-7 while at Cal Poly from 1988 to 1991.

Coleman has been an Olympic Development Program evaluator since 1990, most recently for the U-17 Northern California State Team. He also has extensive experience coaching youth soccer players.

Coleman resides in Stockton, Calif., with his wife, Michelle, Pacific's assistant coach, their daughter, Sydney and their dog, Jack Sparrow.
