Cumberland University Men's Soccer Recruiting

Start with Brian Davies, the head coach. The men's staff is small, with 2 assistant coaches alongside the head coach, so the head coach almost certainly reads recruiting mail personally. Copy the assistants so the whole staff sees the same message.

As general context, NAIA programs may offer athletic scholarships and follow more flexible recruiting contact rules than the NCAA, so coaches can speak with recruits earlier and more directly. For a program ranked where Cumberland University sits, expect the staff to be evaluating early and hearing from many players, so lead with your strongest verifiable results and a short highlight link.
