How to approach this coaching staff

On staffs this size recruiting is usually split, so address the head coach and include the recruiting coordinator.
As general context, NCAA Division III schools do not award athletic scholarships. Aid at D3 schools comes through academic merit and need based packages, and D3 coaches often recruit later in the cycle than D1 programs. Nebraska Wesleyan 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.
Nebraska Wesleyan University is a private small school on an urban campus with about 1,453 undergraduates. On a campus this size the men's soccer staff usually knows the admissions office well, so academic fit comes up early in the conversation. The acceptance rate is 80 percent, and the middle SAT range is 1020 to 1290, so include your grades and any test scores in the first message.
