History

CSM soccer burst onto the scene in 1994 - beginning a long history of success.  Under the leadership of Coach Dan Harvey, the Flames won the MCAC regular season and tournament championships each of the first three years of the program, and traveled to the NAIA national tournament for the first time in 1996.  That year, Kari Stacy was also named second team All-American. 

  

Coach Max Leeson took over the program in 1997 and led the Flames to another sweep of the MCAC. Phil Comstock took over in 1998, won three more MCAC regular season and tourney titles, and led the Flames to the 2000 Elite Eight at the national tournament and Kristi Korth was named a first team All-American.    

  

Kim Ernesti, who had been a star goalkeeper on the first Flames' teams, became the assistant coach in 1998 and continues in that role today.  As CSM continued to dominate the soccer scene, John Carlson took the reigns from 2001-03 and CSM won two more MCAC tournament crowns - eventually losing for the first time in the regular season in 2003.    

  

In 2004, Julio Machuca led the team to a 12-7-2 record, and in 2005, Tony Hernandez coached CSM to the MCAC championship and to the NAIA national tournament.    

  

Jim Homan took over in the 2006 season and has now won three regular season titles.  Since the program began, CSM soccer has continued to dominate regional and MCAC competition.
