American University Women's Soccer Recruiting

Start with Phil Casella, the head coach. American University carries a larger women's soccer staff, with 2 assistant coaches and one goalkeeper coach listed beside the head coach. On staffs this size recruiting is usually split, so address the head coach and include the assistant most likely to run recruiting.

As general context, NCAA Division I is the highest level of college soccer. D1 programs may offer athletic scholarships, and most D1 rosters are largely settled a year or more before a recruiting class enrolls. American University ranks in the lower part of its division by Massey rank, so a prepared recruit who follows up is more likely to get a direct look than at a top ranked program.

American University is a private mid sized school on an urban campus with about 7,266 undergraduates. At a mid sized school the women's soccer staff typically works with admissions but does not control it, so have your transcript ready when a coach asks. The acceptance rate is 62 percent, and the middle SAT range is 1280 to 1460, so include your grades and any test scores in the first message.
