Adrian College Bulldogs
COACHING STAFF Charlie Edwards Head Coach 3rd Season Louisville (2008) 517-264-3990 cedwards@adrian.edu Charlie Edwards enters his third season at the helm of the Adrian College men’s soccer program. Edwards led the 2015 Bulldogs to their best finish--at fifth place--in the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association in five seasons, using a young roster that included eight freshmen and sophomores in the primary starting lineup. Senior goalkeeper Lino Taormina was ranked 36th in NCAA Division III total saves with a MIAA-leading and career-best 105. Previously, Edwards worked as an assistant coach at NCAA Division I institution Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, Ohio. Edwards had been with the Falcons since March 2011. He saw the team compile a record of 21-24-12 over his three seasons on the BGSU coaching staff, including a 6-7-6 mark during the 2013 season. The Falcons fielded a very strong defensive team with the help of Edwards allowing 0.89 goals per game. The team’s highlighted match was a tie against 14th-ranked University of Michigan. The team also was given for the fourth straight year a NSCAA AllAcademic Award for having a team grade-point average over 3.0. In addition, Brandon Silva was also named an Academic All-American. Edwards has extensive experience working as a goalkeeper coach and helped develop and implement a training program for an excellent corps that included Michael Wiest, a Major League Soccer prospect, who recorded eight shutouts in the 2013 season. The 2012 season saw the Falcons post eight wins against a tough schedule. BGSU’s 8-9-3 overall mark represented the team’s most wins and highest winning percentage since 2003. The Brown and Orange posted two wins and a tie against teams that advanced to the NCAA Championships. The 2011 season saw the Falcons post a 7-8-3 record. The seven wins included a season-opening victory over ninth-ranked Michigan before a crowd of over 2,100 at Cochrane Field. The team’s defense posted a total of seven shutouts on the year, the program’s most in a decade. Edwards arrived at BGSU from the University of Dayton. He spent the 2010 season as a volunteer assistant on the Flyers’ staff. He worked primarily with the goalkeepers for head coach Dennis Currier. Edwards helped with administrative duties and travel arrangements and also helped to plan camps and manage the recruit database. In the fall of 2010, Dayton’s keeper, Tyler Picard, was named to the AllAtlantic 10 Conference Second Team. Picard had eight shutouts and a goals-against average of just 0.79. Edwards worked at the University of Central Florida prior to heading to Dayton. While at UCF, he worked with the team’s five keepers, helping to plan and conduct goalkeeping sessions and performed various administrative duties for the program. A 2008 graduate of the University of Louisville,
Edwards was a two-year starter for the Cardinals. He was a member of the 2007 team that advanced to the semifinal round of the Big East Tournament and the second round of the NCAA Division I Men’s Soccer Championship. A native of Lilburn, Ga., he was a member of the conference’s Commissioner’s Honor Roll in both 2006 and 2007. Edwards earned in the spring of 2008 a bachelor’s degree in sport administration. He currently holds a USSF National “D” coaching license including a NSCAA Goalkeeping I, II and III Diploma. He also is a member of the National Soccer Coaches Association of America and the United States Soccer Federation.
Ryan McDonald Assistant Coach 3rd Season Louisville (2011) 517-265-5161 x 4026 rmcdonald@adrian.edu
Ryan McDonald enters his third season as the assistant coach for the men’s soccer program at Adrian College. McDonald graduated from the University of Louisville with a bachelor’s degree in physical education in December 2011. He has been involved with the game of soccer since arriving on the Louisville campus in the fall of 2005. McDonald has worked as a camp counselor at the University of Louisville, Bellarmine University and Franklin Road Academy. He has also worked with the Mockingbird Valley Soccer Club in a variety of roles. McDonald was a recreational soccer coach year-round since 2009 until accepting this position at Adrian College. He also was a club/select coach in the fall of 2011 and managed the overall youth program. McDonald served as head soccer coach at Waggener High School in the fall of 2013. In addition, he worked at Superkick/Teamzone in Columbus, Ohio as a facility operator and soccer trainer. McDonald played four years for his alma mater and led the team in goals during his senior year. He ranked second on the team in scoring with 14 points (6 goals, 2 assists) and the Cardinals were 11-8-2 in 2008. He was elected team Most Valuable Player as a senior and after his collegiate career played in the Professional Arena Soccer League (PASL) for the Louisville Lightning from 2009-13. McDonald was elected team captain during the 2011-12 season and had eight goals and seven assists in 16 games.
