Governors State University Men's Soccer Recruiting

Start with Jose "Tony" Gonzalez, the head coach. The men's staff is small, with one assistant coach alongside the head coach, so the head coach almost certainly reads recruiting mail personally. Copy the assistant 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. Governors State University sits in the middle of its division by Massey rank, which is where well prepared club players who reach out early tend to find real conversations.

Governors State University is a mid sized school on a suburban campus with about 2,556 undergraduates. At a mid sized school the men'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 48 percent, so include your grades and any test scores in the first message.
