Edgewood College men’s and women’s head soccer coach Tim Alexander entered the 2013 season with a combined 495 wins. In the ninth game of the season, the Eagles’ long-time coach collected his 500th career victory, becoming just the 17th NCAA coach in history to reach that plateau. Since starting the Edgewood College men’s soccer program in 1990, Alexander has led the Eagles to 14 winning seasons, five conference tournament championships, and three NCAA Division III Tournament appearances. Three years later, Coach Alexander formed the Edgewood College women’s soccer program and has amassed 17 winning seasons. Alexander’s squad has never failed to reach the post season and has earned nine conference championships and four NCAA Tournament berths.
Over his 23 year tenure at the helm, Alexander has been named the league’s Coach of the Year a combined 13 times. As one of the winningest and most respected college coaches in the country, Alexander has coached six Academic All-Americans, 14 conference Player of the Year recipients, and an incredible 139 first team all-conference performers. In March 2012, Alexander joined another select group of individuals as he was recognized for his outstanding coaching career upon being inducted into the Wisconsin Soccer Coaches Association Hall of Fame.
