10 2015 PENN STATE BOB WARMING Head Coach Sixth Year BEREA COLLEGE 75 PENN STATE RECORD (.626) OVERALL RECORD (.655) Entering his sixth season as Penn State s 11th coach in its storied history, Bob Warming has made his impact known in his first five years. Twice named Big Ten Coach of the Year in 2012 and 2013 by leading the Nittany Lions to back-to-back Big Ten titles, Warming has added a pair of trips to the NCAA Sweet 16 (2010, 2013), and has led the Lions to three straight postseason appearances was a banner year for Warming and his Nittany Lions as they won 13 matches for the second straight year, going overall and 5-3 in the Big Ten. They also recorded their 800th win in program history over Penn (Sept. 24), with a 6-2 win at Jeffrey Field. The team got out to a sizzling start, it s best ever and won seven straight matches for the first time since Senior goalie Andrew Wolverton continued to impress amassing nine total shutouts to set a new career record with 32. He was also given All-Big Ten Second Team honors following his final campaign. PSU was led by sophomore standout Connor Maloney who was tops in points (23) and goals (10) and was named Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year for his efforts. After falling to Michigan State in the B1G Tournament quarterfinals, Penn State received an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament and hosted Hartwick at Jeffrey Field. The Lions defeated the Hawks 2-1 to move onto the second round for the third consecutive season before succumbing to No. 9 seed Syracuse 2-1, on the road. In 2013, Warming s charges relied on stout defense, timely scoring and guile to capture its fifth Big Ten regular-season title in outright fashion. Ultimately, the Nittany Lions won NCAA Tournament games against St. Francis Brooklyn and 10th-seeded UC Santa Barbara to reach the Sweet 16. The Lions finished with a record and a mark in Big Ten play. Following a pair of strong seasons to begin his career at PSU, Warming s 2012 squad accumulated a conference record to capture the team s first Big Ten regular season championship in seven years. The Nittany Lions held opponents to just over one goal-per-game during the season, as they went unbeaten in their final four regular season conference contests. The 2011 campaign presented a major milestone for Warming as he became the 31st NCAA Division I men s soccer head coach to capture 400 career victories after the Nittany Lions downed Florida International, 1-0, in the team s fourth game of the season. Penn State struggled through the Big Ten regular season, but hit its stride in the conference tournament, earning the distinction of being the first No. 7 seed to reach the title game. The Nittany Lions switched roles from a high-powered offense in 2010 to a shutdown defense in The team allowed just 14 goals, the fewest since the 1977 squad surrended 12 scores. Rookie goalkeeper Andrew Wolverton set school records for the most shutouts in a season (12) and led the Big Ten in GAA (0.60) and save percentage (.821). Warming led the Lions to 14 wins in 2011, the most by a PSU team since 2002, a Big Ten Tournament title game appearance, and the program s first NCAA postseason victory in five years. Penn State boasted one of the nation s most prolific offenses in 2010, totaling 144 points (45 goals, 54 assists) in 23 games. Junior forwardcorey Hertzog posted the most productive season by a Nittany Lion in 55 years, recording an NCAA-leading 20 goals and 46 points. Senior midfielder Matheus Braga led the nation and shattered the Big Ten single season record in assists, registering 17. Both players earned NSCAA Second Team All-America honors. Also successful in the classroom, Penn State received the NSCAA Team Academic Achievement Award in 2010, earning the honor with a 3.07 team GPA. Warming s three-plus decades as a head coach have been marked by distinction, achievement, and success. The six-time finalist for national coach of the year and 2008 winner of the award (according to FieldTurf Tarkett) holds a lofty place in the NCAA record book, ranking third among active Division I head coaches and ninth in Division I history with 428 victories. Warming is also one of only two active coaches in Division I to take two different programs to the College Cup. Warming, whose distinguished career spans 35 years, came to Happy Valley from Creighton University, where he took over a previously dormant program and developed it into a conference and regional power and national title contender. In 14 total years in Omaha, served in two different stints ( , ), Warming, the winningest coach in program history, led the Bluejays to 190 victories, seven Missouri Valley Conference regular season and tournament championships, 11 NCAA Championship appearances, and the 2002 College Cup.
