That, coupled with Friday night’s 1-0 loss to Cal State Fullerton gives the Dons five of seven matches that have been decided by one goal USF holds a 27-14-7 edge in all-time series versus Stanford, but the Dons are looking to break out of an 8-match winless streak against the Cardinal; USF’s last win over Stanford came in 2007 and the two teams worked a 2-2 draw in 2011 Six different Dons have tallied goals over the first seven games this season with David Garrett - last season’s top scorer - leading the way with three so far; Garrett is tied for the WCC lead NOTES SNAPSHOT: STANFORD (3-1-3) The Cardinal come into the weekend riding a three-game winning streak after home wins over Harvard (3-1) and Nebraska-Omaha (4-0) this past weekend. The defending national champions, Stanford carries a No. 23 ranking this week. Foster Langsdorf ranks 10th in the NCAA in goals (6), while as a team the Cardinal rank 6th in shots per game (17.7). SNAPSHOT: UC RIVERSIDE (4-3-0) The Highlanders snapped a three-game losing streak by winning both contests at home this past weekend over San Diego (2-0) and No. 20 Gonzaga (2-1). Ricardo Ruiz leads the offense with two goals and two assists so far. As a team, UCR has been outshot by opponents 96-54 this year. LAST TIME OUT: DONS EDGED BY CAL STATE FULLERTON, AIR FORCE The Dons suffered a pair of narrow losses at home this past weekend, losing to Cal State Fullerton 1-0 on Friday night before a goal in the 89th minute helped Air Force top USF on Sunday afternoon. Fullerton’s Ross McPhie scored in the 57th minute for the only tally of the match, but USF had numerous chances to get on the board, including a Jordan Hughes deflection off the crossbar in the 78th minute. Against Air Force, USF’s three goals, 23 shots and 14 shots on goal were all season highs, but the Falcons’ Austin Dewing scored the game winner with a minute and a half remaining. Leon Schwarzer (25’), Kevin De La Torre (73’) and David Garrett (81’) netted goals for the Dons, who rallied back from a 3-1 deficit late in the 2nd half. THEY’RE DUE The Dons have outshot their opponents in every match but one this season, but are still looking for their offense to breakout. Sunday’s 4-3 loss to Air Force was a good sign, as the frontline tallied three goals, the team’s highest output since a 3-1 win at Portland last November. Overall, USF holds a 101-77 advantage in shots this year. STEP RIGHT UP Two newcomers have wasted little time assimilating into the Dons’ lineup this season. Junior transfer Leon Schwarzer (USC Upstate) has started all seven matches in the midfield and added two goals and an assist, including the game winner at CSU Bakersfield on Sept. 1. Meanwhile, freshman Matt Orr (Hong Kong) has started six of the seven contests in the defensive backfield and logged 585 minutes so far, 3rd-most on the team. WILY VETS After losing only two seniors from last year’s team, head coach Eddie Soto has a bevy of experience to work with this year. 11 players return who started at least half of the team’s games a year ago, including all-conference performers David Garrett (1st team), Davi Ramos (2nd team), Santiago Digiuseppe (2nd team, All-Freshman), Christian De Luna (honorable mention), Aaron Lombardi (honorable mention), Andre Glasnovic (All-Freshman) and Jordan Hughes (All-Freshman), not to mention Josh Smith, who missed last season due to injury but has been SERIES HISTORY All-Time vs. Stanford: 27-14-7 Last Meeting: 9/18/15 - STAN 3, USF 1 All-Time vs. UCR: 1-1-0 Last Meeting: 9/10/15 - UCR 3, USF 0

USF MEN’S SOCCER GAME NOTES

@DonsAthletics � 6 WCC CHAMPIONSHIPS � 107 ALL-WCC SELECTIONS � 5 WCC PLAYERS OF THE YEAR � @USFDonsMSoccer

HEAD COACH EDDIE SOTO3rd Season Cal State Fullerton ‘95 Record at USF (entering 2016): 17-17-3 Soto took over on the Hilltop prior to the 2014 season following the end of Erik Visser’s 13-year tenure, becoming the fifth head coach in USF men’s soccer history. Soto inherited

a program that has won six national championships, made 30 NCAA Tournament appearances and has produced 48 All-Americans.

The 2015 campaign saw Soto’s young squad endure a challenging nonconference slate – one that featured road contests at No. 23 Penn State, No. 4 Stanford and No. 21 New Mexico, among others - to find themselves right in the thick of the WCC title race up until the final match of the season. The Dons lost to LMU, 2-0 in the regular season finale, however Soto’s roster featuring just two departing seniors bodes well for the future foundation of the program. Eight of Soto’s student-athletes took home All-WCC honors in 2015, highlighted by first-teamer David Garrett and a trio of Dons named to the all-freshman team – Andre Glasnovic, Jordan Hughes and Santiago Digiuseppe. Davi Ramos, a second-team All-WCC performer, also represented the Dons on the 2015 WCC All-Academic team with his 3.60 GPA.

In his first season in 2014, Soto helped guide the Dons to their first winning record since the 2006 season, finishing with an 11-6-2 overall mark. USF tied for second in the West Coast Conference standings with a 5-2-0 ledger, just one game behind conference champion San Diego. USF served early notice it was a program to be reckoned with when the Dons upset No. 21 Wisconsin in the season opener in Madison. Just a few weeks later, USF earned its second victory over a ranked opponent with a 1-0 victory over Florida Gulf Coast at Negoesco Stadium.

10 USF players earned All-WCC recognition in Soto’s first season, including first-team selections Miguel Aguilar and Danny Kirkland. In January, 2015, Aguilar was selected in the first round of the MLS Draft by the D.C. United with the 17th overall pick. Similarly, David Romney was signed by the L.A. Galaxy II following his USF career, and later by the L.A. Galaxy on Aug. 5, 2015.

So far, Soto has coached three first-team all-academic student-athletes and 16 all-conference performers on the Hilltop. Prior to USF, Soto spent eight seasons as an assistant coach at UCLA, helping guide the Bruins to four Pac-12 championships and eight NCAA Tournament berths, including three quarterfinal appearances and two trips to the College Cup (2006 and 2011). The Bruins also compiled a 44-6-10 conference record over Soto’s last six seasons with the program. During Soto’s coaching tenure, 17 Bruins were selected in the MLS draft, including seven first round picks. In 2013, Soto’s final year at UCLA, the Bruins finished the regular season ranked No. 1 in the country by the NSCAA and College Soccer News and earned the No. 1 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament. The Bruins finished with a 12-3-5 overall record and a 6-1-3 mark in the Pac-12 and defeated four top-3 opponents during the course of the season, including top-ranked Indiana and California. Six Bruins earned All-Pac-12 honors, including junior midfielder Leo Stolz, who was named the conference’s player of the year and was a finalist for the MAC Hermann Trophy awarded to the top player college soccer.

In addition to his coaching duties at UCLA, Soto also served as the head coach of the U-18 L.A. Galaxy Academy team. He took over a last place Galaxy squad midway through the 2011 season and in just one year led the team to the U.S. Development Academy SoCal division title in 2012. Soto also helped coach the Galaxy U-17s to the 2011 adidas Cup championship and also served as an assistant coach for the U-16 Galaxy Academy team that won the 2011 National Championship. Soto served as the head coach of the U.S. Beach Soccer National Team, which participated in FIFA’s Beach Soccer World Cup for the first time since 1997. Prior to joining Jorge Salcedo’s staff at UCLA in 2006, Soto was the assistant men’s coach at Cal State Fullerton from 2001-03 before joining the women’s staff at Long Beach State, where he served as lead assistant for two seasons (2004-05). Soto’s accomplished coaching resume includes 20 years on the club level with the U.S. Developmental Academy, Southern California Developmental Soccer League (SCDSL) and the Coast Soccer League. One of the country’s top players as a collegian at Cal State-Fullerton, Soto was a two-time All-America selection (1992 and ‘93) and ranks as the No. 2 scorer in Titan history, totaling 96 points and 38 goals from 1992-94. He still holds Fullerton’s single-season record for goals in a season with 18, set in 1994. In 1993, he led the Titans to the NCAA semifinals for the first time in school history and a quarterfinal appearance the following year. In 2007, Soto was named to the Mountain Pacific Soccer Federation’s 15-Year Anniversary first team.

Following his graduation from Cal State Fullerton in 1995 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in kinesiology, Soto was selected in the initial MLS Draft in 1996 by the New York/New Jersey MetroStars and again in the 1998 supplemental draft by the San Jose Clash. He also played professionally for the Orange County Zodiac of the A-League and the Los Angeles Cobras of the USISL before ending his career with the USA Pro Beach Soccer Team. Soto was a two-time Parade All-American and the 1990 CIF 3-A Player of the Year at Cerritos (Calif.) High School. He was also a member of the NHB Futbol Club that won the 1991 national championship and a member of the U.S. U-18 and U-20 National Teams. Eddie and his wife, Stephanie have three children, Fabrizio, Wyatt and Isabela.

WHAT’S A DON? “Don” is an acronym for De Origen Noble, which translates to “of noble origin” and is a Spanish title given only to a noble person of political, social or official distinction. The name references the early history of California and San Francisco, which was marked by the exploits of the adventuresome and swashbuckling Spanish Dons. All USF students and alumni are of noble origin who share in the long passion for learning in order to better understand the past, clarify the present and anticipate the future. Thus, we are proud to call ourselves the Dons. USF’s mascot is named Don Francisco, in honor of Don Francisco de Haro, the first mayor of San Francisco.

an all-conference performer each year of his career so far.

TOP SCORERS ABOUNDThe Dons return all but two of their total goals scored from last year with senior David Garrett as the team’s leading returning scorer with 7 in 2015. Sophomore Sean Bowman (4) joins senior Davi Ramos (3) and junior Aaron Lombardi (3) as the Dons’ other top returning offensive threats.

GETTING DEFENSIVEWith the exception of 2015 All-WCC second teamer Kevin Gould, the Dons return their entire starting backfield that ranked 2nd in the WCC in goals against average (0.82) and tied for 2nd in allowing just six goals during conference play last year. Sophomore Andre Glasnovic returns in goal, while fellow sophomore Jordan Hughes joins senior stalwart Christian De Luna in anchoring the defense, which is likely to see the re-emergence of three-time all-conference honoree Josh Smith, who redshirted last year after missing most of the 2015 season due to injury.

DONS TABBED 2ND IN WCC PRESEASON POLL USF was picked to finish 2nd in this year’s WCC preseason poll, tied with San Diego. Santa Clara was the conference favorite, taking home four first place votes, while San Diego captured a pair of first place votes. Loyola Marymount and Saint Mary’s each earned first place votes as well, coming in 4th and 5th, respectively. Portland, Gonzaga and Pacific rounded out the poll.
