\"\"<\/a>Jamestown\u00a0 (UJ<\/a>) \u2013 The University of Jamestown has announced Connor Campbell as the next coach for the Jimmie men\u2019s soccer program.<\/p>\n

Campbell comes to UJ after serving as head coach at NAIA institutions Cincinnati Christian and Florida Memorial.<\/p>\n

The Oregon native was head coach at Florida Memorial during a COVID-shortened 2020 fall campaign and served as the head coach at Cincinnati Christian during the 2018 and 2019 seasons.<\/p>\n

\u201cConnor checks all the boxes that we are looking for in a head coach at the University of Jamestown,\u201d said UJ Director of Athletics Sean Johnson. \u201cHe is a program builder who emphasizes academic excellence, developing athletic performance, exploring personal growth and recruiting and retaining student-athletes that will excel at UJ.\u201d<\/p>\n

His Cincinnati Christian teams improved from 5-11 and 1-8 in conference play his first year to 9-9 and 4-5 in the River States Conference his second season. The four conference wins tied a school record. Campbell joined the Florida Memorial athletics staff after Cincinnati Christian ceased operations.<\/p>\n

Prior to his stint as head coach at CCU, Campbell served as an assistant coach and lead recruiter for Multnomah University (Ore.) from 2014 to 2018. He was charged with leading practices, creating player development plans, and film breakdown in addition to his duties as a recruiter.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m thrilled to be joining the UJ family. I want to thank Dr. Peterson, Sean Johnson and everyone involved in the search process for giving me this opportunity. I love the dedication to professionalism, high level performance on and off the field and the overall investment in student-athletes. Whether it\u2019s academic resources, athletic facilities, or community-supported opportunities, I know that student-athletes are set up for success. I\u2019m looking forward to working with the returning and incoming players on the team to continue to build an incredible soccer environment, create sustainable long-term success and look to contend at the highest levels of the GPAC and NAIA. I can\u2019t wait to get started!\u201d<\/p>\n

Campbell was also an assistant at George Fox (Ore.) for three seasons and was a head coach at Banks (Ore.) and Westside Christian (Ore.) high schools and was club coach for Academia de Futebol in Portland.<\/p>\n
