The Avila University campus
is undergoing multiple changes this year and that is also the case
for both the Men's and Women's soccer programs. A new coaching staff
and multiple new faces on the field will add a higher level of soccer
that has been missing from Avila for the past ten years. The theme
for the soccer programs from this point forward is PRIDE and TRADITION.
Coach Clements wants all of his players to develop a greater sense
of pride, both in themselves and in Avila University. This Pride
will help make players accountable for their fitness, both prior
to season and during season. This Pride will make players accountable
for their performance on the soccer field. This pride will make
players focus more in the classroom and on the practice field. Coach
Clements is asking his players to look back at the soccer tradition
of Avila and remember those players who have played at Avila when
Avila was known as a tough, hard team that always contended for
a conference title and a National title birth. Coach Clements wants
not only to make the current players proud of playing at Avila,
but also those Alumni proud of having played at Avila. Clements
knows that it is going to be a hard and eventful season, but is
ready to put in the hard work to restore the PRIDE and TRADITION
at Avila.
